Hello everyone,
I have been able to debug VMWARE virtual machine running Windows 8 over the network interface, as long as my host operating system was 32-bit. When I moved to 64-bit (Windows 7), then it does not work anymore and WinDbg keeps waiting for connection. I think that this is more like VMWARE issue than the Windows 8. Does anyone else have the same problem?
I have successfully done this on an x64 Win8 host and guest using VMWare 8.
I have not tried it at all with a Win7 host though.

Most likely you are running a 64 bit SERVER OS on your host, and haven’t opened up the firewall, since server does NOT prompt you to do so. (Client does.)
Go to the Control Panel, click on System and Security, click on Allow an app through Windows Firewall under the firewall section, click on Change Settings, scroll down and find Windows GUI symbolic debugger. (windbg) Or if you are using kd.exe, find Windows Kernel Debugger. Make sure that ALL the boxes are checked. Domain, Private, and Public. Click OK.
Close the debugger app running on the host, and then relaunch it.
That will likely fix your problem.
Network debugging won’t go through the firewall on the host unless you configure it properly.
Joe.

Hi,
Thank you Joe for your answer. I am running Windows
7 Ultimate Edition x64 as debugger machine (not a server),
together with WinDBG AMD64. Debuggee machine
is client as well.
I’ll check firewall settings in case I blocked something.

Just FYI, only Windows 8 and later support running KDNET on the target machine. (ie: you can’t debug a Windows 7 box using KDNET, Windows 7 doesn’t support it.) You can of course use any version of Windows on the host machines to run windbg/kd using KDNET, just not on the targets.
Joe.

In the laptop world, fw is dying, as no new camcorder uses FW. Wired
ethernet will soon obsolete. USB for kd is no fun. So Win.next would need
to support KdWLAN.

(ie: you can’t debug a Windows 7 box using KDNET, Windows 7 doesn’t support it.)
Yes, I am very well aware of that :-).
Debuggee is Win8, debugger is Win7 x64. That one does not work.
If I try Win7 x32 as debugger, it works fine
