I'm finally getting around to trying remote debugging, but hit an 
obstacle that I can't figure out.  I've followed the instructions and 
it's clear that there's some communication happening -- as soon as I run 
  callvpython.py on the remote machine, the "Waiting for the Python 
debugger session..." dialog goes away on the local machine.  But then 
nothing happens and eventually the local machine reports "Error 
connecting to Debug server 10 attempts."  The remote machine shows nothing.

Does it matter that I'm using an IP address rather than a host name? 
(The docs say to enter the "domain name," but that made no sense and the 
example shows a host name.)

Does it matter where I run callvpython.py?  I've tried from the 
directory where it's installed and elsewhere, same results.

Does the "program name" in the server command line arguments need to 
have a path?  Is it referring to the local or the remote copy?  It's not 
clear to me if the remote debugger uses a copy of the target program on 
the remote machine or it ships a copy from the local machine...

Any help gratefully appreciated.

Nick
