When I try to debug an asp .Net web site from my machine (the website is on
an IIS 5 server), get the folowing error
------------------------------------
Unable to connect to the machine 'mymachine'. The RPC server is unavailable
---------------------------------------------
I followed the doc, started all services on the server that starts with the
word Remote........
even I used
I used RPCPing tool from my XP machine, the result was as follows

\Windows Resource Kits\Tools>rpcping -s 10.192.2.90
Completed 1 calls in 1 ms
1000 T/S or 1.000 ms/T

So it seems to me that everythignis correct. What should I check or do to be
able to strat debugging remotly.

Thanks

SalamElias,

Check the dll was compiled debug.
Check the web.config file for <compilation debug=true/>

Sorry but I do all my debugging in the safety of my own pc so I can't help
more with your remote.

Good Luck
DWS

Hi Salam,

In order to isolate your program, I woulk like to know what's the platform
of your client and server machine, is there any Windows XP SP2 machine?

If you have any Windows XP SP2 machine in problem, I suggest you need to do
some configuration of the Windows FireWall first, please refer to the
followinf MSDN KB articles for the details:
