There could be, without knowing the exact setup of your two systems I could not say for sure. This does sound like a configuration problem.

Things to consider when trying to debug across a network:

1. when you start the program you want to debug you have to make sure that the port you specified is properly visible / forwarded as needed (so other computers can connect to it)

2. make sure there are no firewalls, etc blocking the VM traffic

closing as worksforme, across network debugging works fine when configured properly.
