Thanks for a quick reply. That was very helpful and that took care of my remote debug needs. I have a related question though. Adding a JBoss server through the server manager lets me do so much more like start/stop servers, deploy to server etc. However if I try to create a new JBoss server through server manager, it asks for the installation directory which is a folder in the local m/c. Is it possible to use this server manager infrastructure with a jboss server installed in a different machine? (Eclipse JBossIDE allows me to do it.) Thanks again for your prompt response.
