Is it possible to install Facebook Augmented traffic control on MAC machine? - network-traffic

I have referred this link https://github.com/facebook/augmented-traffic-control to configure the ATC. Please let me know if someone has configured the same on MAC machine.

Meteor Vagrant can curl localhost:3000 but windows cannot open localhost:3000 windows 8.1

Good morning,
Working on installing Meteor on windows using the following guide:https://gist.github.com/gabrielhpugliese/5855677
As pointed out on other posts its a little dated and I needed to install meteor separately, which I used this guide: Unable to install meteorite on Ubuntu VM
Currently, my set up can do the following:
files stay in sync between vagrant and windows
localhost:3000/ is working on the server
What I still need help completing:
when opening localhost:3000/ in my windows browser, I get the "This webpage is not available
I know that the vagrant VM is correctly serving the app because I opened a new instance of vagrant and curled the localhoust:3000/
I am actively working in django and node and can successfully run apps locally on :8000 and :8080, I tested the meteor app on those ports but still couldn't connect. I also created a windows firewall port exception on 3000 but the results didn't change.
I know that there is a windows-preview currently out, but that is not working for me and I have an issue being tracked in gitHub.
Thank you in advance.
One thing that might be worth mentioning is it is somewhat possible to use Meteor on windows.
More details here: https://github.com/meteor/meteor/wiki/Preview-of-Meteor-on-Windows.
With your vagrant machine it sounds like there is a problem with port forwarding on your localhost machine to the VM's ports.
One possible simple way to get passed this is to get your Ubuntu machines IP address and simply load it up using http://<ip address>:3000.
I'm not sure why the port forwarding isn't working on your machine. In general the reason is provided when you run vagrant up, if there was an issue.

Is outgoing Azure traffic firewalled?

I have a Windows VM in Azure that I'm using for VS2015 experiments.
Google Drive is unable to contact update servers to finish its own installation (despite Chrome/Omaha working fine).
Apparently, I also can't clone git repos over ssh, even though HTTPS seems to be working.
Disabling the Windows Firewall does not seem to remedy these issues.
Suggestions?
You have to open endpoints on the vm. HTTPs and HTTP are open. If you need other ports...then you need to find them and open them as endpoints. My guess is that's what is happening here.

How to access a local asp.net server on OSX through parallels 7.

I'm running visual studio 2010 on Windows 7 through parallels on my mac. I want to be able to access its local host on osx for testing purposes. I really have no idea what steps that I'd have to take to do this, so any help at all would be appreciated.
Map the VM's IP to a domain in your /private/etc/hosts file in OSX (i.e. testsite.local) or just access via the VM's IP directly. Of course, for the same, map in your VM's host file as well (i.e. c:/Windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts map 127.0.0.1 to testsite.local)
Map appropriately in IIS in VM.
Make sure applicable port/s are opened in your VM Windows firewall (standard port 80 and 443 usually enough).
Done.
I very rarely use the built-in VS Development Server, so can't say anything on that.
Troubleshooting:
Make sure it works in the VM first ;-)
Turn off your firewall temporarily to make sure it's not a firewall issue.
Make sure you've got your network settings set applicable. I haven't been working with a Mac for all that long, so haven't bothered testing with anything other than bridged.
The answer is NO:
https://serverfault.com/questions/82899/can-i-access-cassini-from-a-remote-machine
Cassini, the built in web server, only listens on Localhost.
The recommended way to do it is to setup IIS 7 on Windows 7 and attach the Visual Studio debugger to your application pool process.
If you can get a tool like Fiddler for Mac that supports reverse proxy abilites you could try:
http://abhishekdev.posterous.com/how-to-access-a-cassini-iis-for-web-projects
Or maybe setup a SSH proxy (VM as the server and ssh tunnely from Mac to VM)?
If you go to Terminal and type in the command "ifconfig" and look for the "vnic1" section which is the last section to be printed and it has an ip address called "inet" e.g. "10.37.129.2" this will take you directly to local host.
If it doesn't work you must ensure that your parallels is set to a shared network under the preferences network section.

Trying to test a ASP.NET website over a LAN

I have a XP Pro and Vista machine setup on a workgroup LAN, normal case
with NAT router/adsl modem. Latop is wireless.
The XP Pro laptop has IIS on it and I have written an ASP.NET app.
When I try to access the app from browser on the Vista PC I get an error
saying can't connect to site.
I have tried the following:
Can ping the XP Pro PC from Vista PC.
Turned on Web access from windows firewall.
Rebooted.
When I telnet to it I get http 400 bad request.
Any thing I am not doing please?

Are you debugging your project using the ASP.net development server? I believe that server does not accept external connections.
If you've allowed access through the firewall, I'd suggest looking at your IIS settings for the website. Is anonymous access allowed? What sort of authentication are you requiring if not? Is the website actually running in the url you're requesting?
Lots of different problems occur because of IIS settings. Play with each possible cause, one at a time, until you find out what it is the real cause, if you still can't find it, play with two at a time.
When you finally find the problem, REMEMBER it, because problems with IIS tend to be forgotten and then you have to go through everything AGAIN. Sadly, I know this from experience.

How do I setup an ASP.Net/IIS dev enviroment on a Mac for my Flash developer?

No, no, I'm not getting hives ;).
I am able to run a local version of my .NET 3.5 site on IIS and troubleshoot whilst I develop. However, my flash developer is forced to log onto our Windows 2003 and mess with our staging server when he wants to see how his work is doing. This is unacceptable, I understand, but right now there are time concerns so this hack is going to have to fly for a little.
How do I set up a dev environment for my flash developer to be able to work on his local machine? I'm sure this gets done in other places.
VMWare Fusion or Parallels, or give him a virtual machine/PC that he can Remote Desktop to from his Mac.
Not to sound the fool, but isn't Flash not platform dependent? Is the flash developer doing anything more complex than connecting to a remote client to update an .swf file? You don't "need" to be running windows/iis to copy a file from mac to windows. You might try the Remote Desktop client:
http://www.microsoft.com/mac/products/remote-desktop/default.mspx
or set up an FTP account (on the staging server in question?) for him. I agree with the above about using Parallels or VMWare. It's not necessarily a "hack" or "workaround" that you can use and test on multiple platforms. It's a huge plus! As a user of VMWare and ex-parallels user, I recommend VMWare. It takes about as long as "installing windows" to be up and running on a mac, and the resources from your Mac can be available via a "documents" on the desktop (or other) if you so choose.
What kind of Mac is it? The Intel ones can run Windows natively.
Dual boot Windows on his Mac with Boot Camp?
Setup IIS in a VMWare Fusion virtual machine. Do a simplified install of Windows XP and it should run excellent.
That way you can interface with the IIS Server from Mac OS X or from other PC's from anywhere on the local network for that matter.
I use Vmware Fusion to run subversion and Apache servers and it runs beautifully.
well an alternative is the Q Emulator
What is the actual problem? As I see it, Flash dev. makes a Flash movie, and tests it locally, if it needs to communicate with the server, it does just that. If the Flash dev. wants to see it in a page, or see how it communicates with the surrounding HTML and Javascript, he uploads the file to the server using a ordinary windows share (aka Samba-share) or FTP or whathaveyou and then presto, it works.
I've just discovered http://www.virtualbox.org">VirtualBox which is a free alternative to Parallels and Bootcamp. I'm running Windows XP pro on my MacBook no problem at all - note it's for Intel Macs only though.
