    Cannot remotely execute project in debug

    I have a service that was developed in C# that I wish to debug. The
    project resides on my desktop system and I wish it to execute on a
    remote test system (actually on the next desk).

    When I confifure the project for remote debugging of the project I get
    the following alert: "Error while trying to run project: Unable to start
    debugging. Access is denied."

    This worked fine in the past when the test machine was Windows 2000, but
    now that my test system is running Windows 2003 I cannot seem to perform
    the same remote debugging. I have set the .Net zone security to full
    trust, but otherwise I have made no special configuration settings on
    the test system. On the desktop (development) system I am set to project
    debug, remote debugging true and the proper name of the test system has
    been entered; I have also specified the command line value of
    "-ConsoleMode", which instructs my 'service' to execute as a console
    application, which it does fine if I invoke it from a command line on
    either system.

    Is there something I have missed that should be added? Should I not be
    able to do this?

    Does no one have any idea what can be causing this, or what tools could
    be used to determine the cause of the problem?

      I have just gone back over all of the options that were specified, and
      they match the information from the MSDN pages.

      1. I have ensured that my account is a member of the debugger group.
      2. I copied the binaries from my development system to the test system.
      3. I configured the project properties as specified.
      4. To test, I can run the service in console mode from a command prompt
      on the test system.

      But when I attempt to initiate a remote debug from the development
      system I constantly get an error "Unable to start debugging. Access is
      denied."

      Argh!
