Remote debugging with asp.net (or lack thereof)

[Guest]

Has anyone gotten this to work successfully ?

My setup:
---------------------------------
Workstation: VS2003
Server: Windows 2003 Server -or- Windows XP SP1

In trying to develop with a non-administrator account ,I always get this
error: "Unable to start debugging... Access Denied..."
In some scenarios, it says, "Make sure the user is a member of
administrators or debugger users..."

So far, I have tried:
Adding my user account (on the server) to the Debugger Users, VS_Developers,
and on Server 2003 - the IIS_WPG groups.
I even tried adding the account in dcomcnfg.

Personally, I have yet to see this work the way it should.

You must be logged on as a user of the local domain and set the SE_DEBUG
privilege if you want to debug remote as non-admin.

Do you mean logged on as an administrator on the remote computer and how dou
set the SE_DEBUG privelege?
I'm sorry to sound clueless but from the text I read, the idea was to
achieve debugging without being an administrator. Can you provide a little
more detail?

Michael Willers <http://staff.newtelligence.net/michaelw/> wrote a nice
little tool in c++ that allows you to debug ASP.NET as NonAdmin.

He's in hollydays until next week....

maybe the terminalserver solution can solve something for you
