I am successfully able to connect to a remote kernel from my Spyder console using these instructions. Now I would like to know how if it is possible to open a .py file from a remote server and debug it inside Spyder on my local machine, and if yes how? Spyder's file browser still browses for local machine.
Thanks

Unfortunately, Spyder can't do that for you at the moment.
A workaround is to mount the remote directory where you have your file locally and then open it in Spyder. For that you can use sshfs or sshfs-win, depending on your operating system.
