It could be that what I'm trying to achieve isn't possible (as I can't find out how to do it!) but basically I've upgraded my VS Version from 2010 to 2013.
All of my companies test sites are running on IIS 6 on Windows 2003 Server.
And what I'm trying to do is remote debug my solutions on this machine (Which I was able to do in VS2010).
So my question is...is this possible or will I need to convince someone to upgrade the server?
Thanks,
Craig

I wanted to try team foundation server, so I searched it on microsoft, found tfs express 2012, and installed it on a notebook with windows 7 home premium.
The installation was successfull, but when I followed the procedure for creating a new project it asked for a login. I didn't knew what user/pass to use, I tried some, didn't work.
I tried to create a new user (both in windows and in tfs); didn't work.
Apparently all boils down to a feature of IIS, "Windows Authentication", which this windows can't have.
So the question is:
did really microsoft made a piece of... software that can't work?
is there another way to authenticate?
I tried to login in tfs and the DefaultCollection with chrome and ie, no success either.
It sounds like Windows 7 Home, is not suitable for running TFS Express as it depends on the features of IIS that don't work in Home edition. There is nothing explicit in the System Requirements about editions, but if you are saying the Windows Authentication feature of IIS doesn't work on Home edition, then I guess it won't work. TFS on-premise only uses IIS Windows Authentication.
If you want to try out TFS, why not try Visual Studio Online, this is TFS 2013 plus some updates that will appear in the on-premise version later. It can be used for Free for a team of up to 5 developers.

You should install SharePoint 2010 on that machine. Either install it on Windows 7-8 or Windows Server 2008-R2
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee554869.aspx
Check this Installing Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 on Windows 7 x64 along this follow msdn.
you should have 64-bit version of Windows 7. then follow the step
mentioned in the above link. Install the additional prerequisites carefully else the installation will cause some error.
Visual Studio 2010, C#, ASP.NET & SQL Server 2008 are my main development tools, recently I've bought a VDS (virtual dedicated server) which runs on Win server 2008 R2, my vendor has install SQL server 2008 express on my server, but I'm going to have VS2010 on my server also, as I think running and debugging my web apps on server would be much faster and easier than remote tests, is it possible at all to use VS2010 and code in my server? I can use remote desktop to view my server so I think it should be possible.
I use VS2010 ultimate on my local machine, what is the difference between VS2010 express and ultimate as I've that VS express is free of charge, so it is easy to download and install it on server
what should I do now? guide me please
You can also use remote debugging. Depending on how much control you have on your server you may be able to get it working. In Visual Studio when you choose Debug -> Attach To Process it allows you to specify a remote machine to connect to. On the remote machine you'd connect to the w3wp.exe process associated with your AppPool. If you went this route you would not need Visual Studio on your production machine.
I do not know the details of your situation but why would you want to debug your application on your (production) server? That is what your development environment (local machine) is for. Once you are satisfied with your local build you deploy it to your server.
I am currently looking into developing some WebParts for Microsoft Sharepoint 2010. I have set up a Windows 2008 Server virtual machine running Sharepoint 2010, and I have Visual Studio installed on my local machine (Windows 7 32 Bit).
However, it seems that I need to have Microsoft Sharepoint installed locally in order to access the templates in VS. I have found a couple of tutorials online saying you can develop Webparts locally without Sharepoint 2007 installed, but all 2010 tutorials insist on having Sharepoint installed locally.
Do the methods of deploying a sharepoint 2007 web part work under 2010, or alternatively, are there any good tutorials on how to develop a Sharepoint 2010 Web Part without having Sharepoint installed on the development machine?
There is a post here that describes what you are looking to do. As Gavin mentioned below, you need to add the path to the registry.
Since you already have the VM on your local machine, my suggestion is to install a copy of Visual Studio installation there as well. I have the same set-up with an instance of VS local for web development and one on my VM for SP development.
I am aware of the upgrade options for SharePoint 2010
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=e8b66eb3-27c7-4a39-a2e1-3e7d18b12ee1
The above talks more of a Production Deployment.
And i have seen so many Windows 7 VHD boot for SharePoint 2010.
Would like to hear options for the MS VPC with Windows 2008 Server+MOSS2007 towards upgrading to SharePoint 2010.
The above is for personal lab and exercises.
Please share your views (URLs, Forum Discussion) pros, cons.
MS VPC doesn't support 64 bit client, so it's not an option for running SharePoint 2010
The main options available are:
On your physical machine
VHD boot
Hyper-V
VMWare
1 and 2 only support one server installations
3 doesn't work well on laptops
So my preferred choice is 4
But it very much depends on your machine and needs
