4.2.1 Overview of User-Mode Debugging

To set up a remote debugging session, do the following:

1.To debug across a serial cable, connect the cable to both the target and host.

2.On the target machine:

·If running the free build of Windows NT, make sure the CSR-disable bit is not set. For more information on this bit please see Section 4.2.3.

·Start WinDbgRm.

·If you are debugging across a serial cable, select the serial transport layer for WinDbgRm that provides the fastest baud rate that the target and host can handle.

3.On the host machine:

·Start WinDbg.

·Check the Disconnect on Exit option in the Debug dialog from the Options menu.

·Change the transport layer to match the one used by WinDbgRm on the target.

·Copy your driver and source files to the host. Use the User DLLs dialog from the Options menu to specify the symbol search path to your driver; use the Debug dialog from the Options menu to specify the source search path to your source files.

·Select the Attach command from the Run menu.

·Choose the CSR process (csrss.exe) from the task list.

·Select Go from the Run menu or press F5.
