Describes how to debug the OS kernel locally. In a local debugging environment,
you are physically located near the server you want to debug. You use a host
machine, typically a laptop, that has the Windows debugging software installed
on it. You connect the host machine to the server with a cable and begin the
debugging process.
Describes how to debug the OS kernel remotely. In a remote debugging
environment, you are not physically located near the server you want to debug.
You use a host machine, typically a laptop, that has the Windows debugging
software installed on it. You connect the host machine to the server across a LAN
and begin the debugging process.
