Visual Studio, Remote Debugging, DOM problems, etc

I think, this is familiar to any Windows developer: you start a remote debug monitor, point your VS to it and all you get is some network error message box. Today, I finally solved this mystery. Make sure that you can access the machine running Visual Studio from the machine where the program is running by its DNS name. In my case, I just got assigned a new IP address from DHCP and the remote machine had a wrong IP for my machine. Once I fixed this, remote debugging started working again.
