debuging on remote machine

[Brian Henry]

Hi,

We have a Dual Intel Xeon web server which we do development on, is there
any way that we could debug our websites remotely on that server (its on the
same internal LAN), it seems stupid to have to copy it locally to work on
and debug it just to place it right back on the server... especially when
many people are developing it simultaneously thanks

You could install the necessary application from the Visual Studio Setup CD.
But your choice has a limitation: only one person at time can debug your web
application.

Since the Visual Studio .NET was released, the approach to develop in a team
is changed. Now, the right way that you have to use is:

- Install a Visual Source Safe (VSS) Server (to share the source code with
the other developer)
- Install the VSS client in each developer PC
- Link your project, in Visual Studio, to the corresponding project in VSS
- Develop e debug (this can be done from any developer in the team
concurrently)
- Compile it in release mode and deploy it in the staging or production
server.

hi, what are the "nesecary applications" that need installed on the server
for remote debugging? thanks

Only the remote debug component that you find in the Visual Studio setup
procedure. For more information about it go to this link:
