I'm having problems being able to set and use break points in visual studio.
Here's my configuration:

The web server is a remote server access over the internet. The OS on the
server is a "fresh" copy of windows 2003 enterprise.

I'm using VS 2003 on a client running windows XP pro. (I'm not using the web
server on the client).

first question: Do I have to install any special packages on the server to
use the debugging features? If yes on which of all these MSDN DVDs do I find
this package?

What other security settings/privledges do I need to change/add to which
directories to make this work?

Larry,

What happens me as well, is that with ASPnet pages an error can cause a
postback and than the breakpoint is not reach. What I do than is set the
breakpoint a little bit earlier.

Can it be that?

I'm pretty sure that is not the problem. I get an error if I try to use the
"Start" option from the debug menu claiming I don't have the correct
permissions.

You wrote that this is your problem

Do you now mean that you can not debug at all?

Larry,

Than you have a not so nice problem (not bad however mostly it take some
time to find the solution because it can have more reasons).

The first problem can be that you are probably not the user of your aspnet
application however the ASPNET user, that one has to have permission to your
used IIS virtual directory.

However, I hate this myself when I sometimes have this problem and than it
is mostly trying to get it right and I have than to see the computer before
my eyes and that is impossible using a newsgroup.

You know that you can search this and other newsgroups on Google for this
problem.
I thought that Kevin Yu has answered a lot of these problems.

I hope this helps,
