• Visual Studio Visual Studio 2005 Remote Debugger (Windows Service)

  Greetings, I have now worked for several hours in order to resolve a problem we are having in our development team. We have a Windows 2003 server (all patches applied) and multiple XP clients (all patches applied).

However, this solution is not good, as we do not attend to run Termin Server, which means, that only two persons can be on the server simoultaonisly. I then set the Remote Debugger up as a Windows Service, with ...Show All
