SUMMARY

When MSVCMON is run in a Win32s system, you will not see the TCP/IP protocol as an option for connection. The TCP/IP communication layer for MSVCMON is written for true 32-bit platforms and requires multi-threading support to operate. Because of this, the remote debug monitor (MSVCMON) does not support TCP/IP on Win32s. It only supports a serial connection for remote debugging. This information should be added to your Visual C++ 4.x documentation.
