Post Body

I’m writing a windows service at the moment which accepts commands over local IPC through named pipes. My service is launched as the system user which makes it difficult to debug because the main service process creates child processes which are also running as SYSTEM which makes it difficult to track which process should be listening for me to attack a debugger. I’m wondering if anyone has experience debugging windows services running as SYSTEM? Are there any better alternatives to using ‘dlv exec’ when my SYSTEM service spawns child processes?
