Hi there, first let me say that I haven't actually used the remote system explorer myself, so, I may be wrong on some answer -- but I do know PyDev pretty well :) For the remote debugging, the way it's implemented right now, you do need to have access to sources locally. I guess this could be done better if it knew you're in the remote system explorer, but right now PyDev knows nothing about this (so, you do need sources locally) -- so, unfortunately, right now, the best advice I can give you is using pdb in this situation :( I think PyDev could be improved so that the debugger asks for the source to the remote backend if it can't find it (please open a feature request for that). As for the 2nd question, the same goes here, as PyDev is oblivious of the remote system explorer, it can't launch it (although maybe you could ask to the remote system explorer guys if they have a way to make it work).
