Connecting a Windows Debuging session to a Linux machine is essentially similar to a Windows to Windows connection. The Linux remote debugger server is started on the command line.

then connect to the Linux Machine by selecting the attach to remote Linux command. We can then select the process we want to debug and connect to it with a simple click.
