Not exactly. But I was able to debug WAS 5.1 with IntelliJIdea. In the
administration console go to Servers->Application
Servers->{servername}->Process Definition->Java Virtual Machine. Then check
Debug Mode and remember the port it will listen under. This can be found
under Debug Arguments (default: address=7777).
Once you have saved the configuration, you have to restart the server and
get some coffee (because WebSphere will be even slower than usual). Once
your mug is empty, direct your remote debugger to connect over a socket to
port 7777. The command line parameters would
be: -Xdebug -Xnoagent -Djava.compiler=NONE -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,ser
ver=y,suspend=n,address=7777

Happy debugging!

Note: just in case you get impatient and want to manipulate the WAS debug
flag without having to wait for the administrative console, you can manually
edit
 {WAS_HOME}\config\cells\{cellname}\nodes
\{nodename}\servers\{servername}\ser
ver.xml (at the end of the file is the VM definition with a debug flag)
