RE: Debugging a remote service fails

Jeffrey,

I appreciate the effort, but I must stop dead in my tracks and point out ....

REMOTE DCOM default access and launch perms at Machine Level includes
EVERYONE??!!

Isn't that a little dangerous? If that's what's required to debug on a
server (even DEV or TEST servers) I'm not interested.

Hi Dwaine,

Sorry for the late response. I will continue to help you on this issue.

Micosoft MSDN newsgroup support is providing replies in 24 hours excluding
the weekend. Since it is weekend, you did not get follow-up reply till now.
Thanks for your understanding.

The link below contains more details of MSDN subscription FAQ:

As I know WinXP SP2 Windows Firewall is turned on by default, do you turn
it off yourself? Have you tried to add "ANONYMOUS LOGON" "Remote Access"
permission in the dcomcnfg? As "Configure DCOM on the computer that is
running Visual Studio .NET" section described in the KB below:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb%3BEN-US%3B833977

Also, I would recommend you to try one more setting related to dcomcnfg.
You can just go to the "Machine Debug Manager" node through dcomcnfg and
then check that the following accounts should be added "remote" permissions
in both the default access and default launch permissions :
SYSTEM
INTERACTIVE
Everyone
Administrators

Then you can just change the identity from system to interactive in the
properties of Machine Debug Manager. This you need to do both on the server
and the client and then you can reboot both the boxes and then try to
debug. I hope the error which we were getting right now should go away with
this. Either we should be able to do the debugging then or get a new error
by this.

Additionally, I will contact VS debugger team to collaborate on your issue.
Thanks.

Best regards,
Jeffrey Tan
