Remote debugging on iPlanet 60sp5

Question

I'm trying to get remote debugging working on iPlanet (Sun Web Server) version 60sp5 using jdk1.4.1. I think I've set all the setting correctly, but I get the error "Connection refused; Fatal error: Unable to attach to target VM."
Here are how things are set:
jvm12.conf for the server contains:
[JVMConfig]
jvm.enableDebug=1
jvm.compiler=NONE
jvm.option=-classic
jvm.option=-Xnoagent
jvm.option=-Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n,address=3999
The the $ADMIN_SERV/start-jvm file contains:
# cat start-jvm
NSES_JDK=/usr/j2sdk1.4.1; export NSES_JDK
NSES_JRE=${NSES_JDK}/jre; export NSES_JRE
NSES_JRE_RUNTIME_LIBPATH=${NSES_JRE}/lib/sparc:${NSES_JRE}/lib/sparc/server:${NSES_JRE}/lib/sparc/classic:${NSES_JRE}/lib/sparc/native_threads:${NSES_JDK}/lib/sparc; export NSES_JRE_RUNTIME_LIBPATH
<snipped the rest>
I've stopped and restarted the admin server and the server instance I'm trying to debug.
When I run jdk 1.4 jdb, I get:
#/usr/j2sdk1.4.1/bin/jdb -attach 3999
java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused
at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.socketConnect(Native Method)

Fatal error:
Unable to attach to target VM.
What detail am I missing? Or is JDK remote debugging not supported?
Thanks in advance.

How to perform remote debugging on windows server under Microsoft Live Account?
Host PC runs a Windows 8 signed in with a Microsoft Live Account. Target PC runs a Windows server 2012R2.
I installed Remote tools for Visual Studio 2013.4 on Target PC.
As I known, Windows server doesn't support Microsoft Live Account.
Hello,
Actually, we just need the system user account and the password of target pc, but the microsoft live account is just an account of local pc.
For more details, you could refer to the following blog which is quite similar to VS2013.
