I don't use Python, therefore I don't know anything about Python
debugging. However, we have been able to use gdb and perldb remotely
from inside Emacs, via Tramp. No filesystem mounting necessary.

If you could tell me a little bit about how to use the Python debugger
in Emacs, I could try to help you with the setup in the remote
case. Does there exist a similar command like "M-x gdb"?

Best regards, Michael.
