windbg not able to see processes on the server

NTDEV

Hi,

I am running windbg server on a system and trying to connect to it
from another host. I am not able to see any processes on the remote
host when I connect.

Can anyone tell me what could be the possible reason.

Thanks,
Vinay

I assume you are using a process server (dbgsrv). Are you sure you used the
right connection parameters (e.g. password, port, and soforth)? Usually I
have seen this happen when the connection to the process server fails.

When I setup a DBGSRV.EXE to listen over TCP, the common failure to
connect that I run into is when I’ve neglected to disable the firewall
on a Windows XP target machine. Obviously this could apply / not
apply depending on which of the other connection methods for the
process server you’re actually using.
