VS.NET: Debug on public server

I'd like to configure VS to run from my public internet server so I can edit
and update asp.net apps anywhere I have a terminal services connection.
Currently upon firing 'F5' I'm getting a 'Unable to start debugging on the
web server. You do not have permission to debug the app. The URL for this
project is in the Internet Zone'.

I'm able to Build Solution but not debug.

I've added my login to the 'Debugging' user group. Anything else to try?

Debugging on a remote server is prohibitively slow - in my experience, not worth pursuing (so if you have to run things remotely, you get a whole lot better at using tracing ;-). Debugging remotely with Whidbey (VS2005) will be totally possible however (along with so many other wonderful things!).

This isn't remote debugging...I'm running VS _on the server...trying to run with the F5/debug mode.

This entry from http://www.geekpedia.com/blogs/blog.php?author=1&month=01&year=2005&comment=48&PHPSESSID=004045f29431af382a56dbdea7bdb065#48 nailed down my specific problem:

If you get the following error when trying to debug an ASP .NET project:

Error while trying to run project: Unable to start debugging on the web server. You do not have permission to debug the application. The URL for this project is in the Internet Zone. Click Help for more information.

From Internet Options (in IE go to Tools -> Internet Options), the Security tab, at the bottom of the Custom Settings for Internet Zone, set "Automatic logon with current username and password".
