problems remote debugging using VS 2005

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



we are having problems using the VS2005 debugger. we're using the
remote debugging where the process is running on a remote machine.
we're using the following settings in the properties tab:
Remote Server Name= IP where the process to be debugged is running
Connection = Remote with no authentication
Debugger type=Native only

But it looks like msvsmon.exe that is running on the remote machine
needs a lot of ports to be open. it looks like it opens random ports in
the range from 1000-2500. But we don't want to open all those ports
because of security issues. Is there any way that we can open only few
ports like (may be upto 5 ports or so) ?
Do we need to use "Connection=Remote with windows authentication"? If
so, is there any document that explains how to do this. Also do we need
to have the remote machine and the PC from which you are debugging to
be in the same domain?

Thanks
