We have remote debugging working for Docker for Windows. Has anyone been able to do kernel debugging using Docker For Windows on an anniversary build? Windows Server 2016?
Thanks,
Paul
I haven’t tried. I’d be interested to hear anyone’s experience.

Scott,
I’ll try to get it going tomorrow and let you know. Visual Studio debugging remotely in user-mode appears to work fine. For kernel-mode when an OS is virtualized, one uses named pipes. With containers I’m not sure if COMn can be configured as a named pipe. It’s looking like the latest patch from MS has got docker on anniversary working more like how it works on Server 2016, but this is a guess. Maybe I can configure the latest version to use hyper visor for the Windows containers and maybe I can configure a named pipe there.
Right now it is a guessing game here as our team is fairly new to Docker for Windows. They asked me to try and see if kernel-mode can be debugged. It’s not really a requirement now, but if it does work it would be nice to know.
