    Hello,

    I usually develop using a main development computer running Visual Studio and other tools and another lab computer that has multiple VMs running at once. Until I discovered this awesome tool I used a serial cable for kernel debugging. Now that I am aware of virtualKD I was wondering if maybe someone was successful in connecting to the pipe that the VirtualKd creates over the network. I tried using something like “\computernamepipepipename” (in windbg) but it didn’t work.

    Maybe I’m doing it wrong, maybe it’s not possible.

    any help, would be much appreciated.

    Thanks.

    It’s theoretically possible to make it if you modify the source files, however, the network latencies will make it quite a slow experience. To my knowledge, several people tried to make network versions, but nobody has achieved a reasonable debugging speed.
