Answer 1

Below is a quick step to set up Visual Studio Remote Debugging Monitor on Visual Studio IDE.

• Open Programs > Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 > Visual Studio Tools > Visual Studio 2010 Remote Debugger Folder.

• A Windows Explorer shows the 32 and 64-bit versions of the Remote Debugging Monitor.

• Copy the respective ver that matches remote server (e.g. x64 machine use X64 folder & x32 machine use X86 folder) to a folder on your machine.

• While at the console on your remote machine, go to the folder and start msvsmon.exe.

• Go to Tools > Options and change the Authentication mode to No Authentication and check the box Allow any user to debug.

• From your development machine, on Visual Studio, go to Tools > Attach to Process.

• Change the Transport to Remote and the Qualifier to the name of your remote server.

• You should now see the executable, which you want to debug on that list. Select the process you want to debug and click Attach.

• You may now debug the code while it is running on the remote server.

• Just remember to turn off Remote Debugging Monitor at the remote server once done.
