ASP.NET Remote Debugging (client using IIS5 XP and server using IIS6 2K3)

Hi,

I have a problem when using VS.NET 2002 from my client machine using XP Pro IIS5.  I can create a web application on the server running 2K3 IIS6, but it cannot configure the root directory.  It tells me it could be because of the client/server running different versions of IIS.  I also have FrontPage Extensions 2002 installed on both, though I just use the file share web access method.  Is there some settings on the server side that I can set to allow this to work properly?

Thanks!

did you install the .Net server components on the server? it automatically sets up debuggin for you.

I am trying to create and debug from a client to the server.  Meaning the ASPX project is on the server, I want to debug from the client.

.NET server components?  I installed VS.NET 2002 which installs the deubbing components.  By doing this though, when I try create an ASPX project locally or remotely, it tells me it can't connect to the web server.  So to fix this I have to uninstall IIS, then reinstall it using the ASP.NET options in W2K3 Server.  

I am not sure what else to do.
Figured it out.

All you have to do is make sure you have an account on the server with privileges in the debug group i also made me an administrator also.  Now I did do this before posting here, so what the problem ended up to be was my isp provider doesn't allow port 80 open so i had to change IIS to port 81 thus breaking my debug connection from my client, because its looking to connect on port 80.  :)
