SUMMARY
The Windows NT Server 3.51 and 4.00 compact disc no longer contains the debugging utility Windbg.exe.

MORE INFORMATION
Excerpt from the Windows NT 3.51 Resource Kit update, page 165:

Windbg.exe, the utility used for reading dump files and kernel debugging under Windows NT 3.5, has been replaced under version 3.51 with a set of utilities that automatically read and interpret dump files. They also aid in sending dump files to support personnel for advanced analysis. These utilities simplify the process of dealing with kernel dump files.

For those cases where a local debug is necessary, the KD debuggers (i386KD.exe, Alphakd.exe, Mipskd.exe, and Ppckd.exe) are still available.

This is documented for NT 4.0 on page 1101 of the NT 4.0 Workstation Resource Kit.

The KD debuggers (i386KD.exe, Alphakd.exe, Mipskd.exe, and Ppckd.exe) are available as part of the Platform SDK and/or Win32 SDK. Additional query words: prodnt
