WinDbg set-up for target debug

    I'm trying to set up WinDbg to perform kernel level debug on an XP machine.

    I connected a null-modem cable between the target and my host machine. I verified the serial link between both machines using Hyperterminal. I added the appropriate com port and baud settings to the boot.ini file on the target. I expected that once I rebooted the target and ran WinDbg on the host (with -k and the appropriate com port and baud settings), that WinDbg would successfully connect to the target. It doesn't - it says "waiting to connect" with "Debugee not connected" at the bottom of the window.

    Am I missing a step here? Is there something I have to do on the target (other than the boot.ini settings) to turn on debugging?

    Thanks.
