Hi all,
I need to do the remote debug of my application on a remote machine.
This is the first time that I do this, so I could mistake...
I opened the window "Attach to process" from Tools, then I connected to the
remote machine. I've selected the process and the type of code to debug
(CLR), afterward I get follow error: "Unable to connect to the process.
Access denied".

Does it an authorizations problem?
Otherwise, is there another way to do the remote debug?

Thanks a lot
denny
 
Before going any further, I am going to tell you I do not like Remote
Debugging. Following the MS suggested development path, there is, IMO, no
reason to remote debug.

Having said that, the issue comes with attaching to the debugger. The
permissions error is likely to be only the first of many hurdles. In the end,
you may find you do not have the Remote Debugging bits installed on the
server. The easiest way to solve perms (Network Admins shuddering) is to make
you admin of the server. Barring that, you have to be, at least, a member of
Debugger Users. NOTE that you might still need addt'l software installed on
the server to Remote Debug.
