Hi,

I am trying to run the !ALPC command within WinDbg on Vista and was told in
another newsgroup (WinDbg) that it requires non public symbol files in order
to succeed.

What I am trying to do is debug an old application hanging and from what I
see it is waiting for an LPC call. Afaik LPC is now emulated through ALPC.
WinDbg does not support the "old" and well functioning !lpc command and
tells you to use !alpc instead which is broken because the required symbols
are not available to the public. How can someone debug such a problem? Could
the problem be solved with another debugger (application) or should it be
solved within Windows and its symbols (operating system)? Unfortunately
there is not too many alternatives to WinDbg remaining on the market.....

Cheers / Andreas
