Windows phone 8 emulator: doesn't connect VPN.
I'm trying to connect internet via Windows Phone 8 Emulator using VPN connection. It doesn't connect VPN, it uses only local watchguard.
Please advice.
First connect to your VPN and add a bridge using Hyper-V Switch Manager and set it to your primary connection. Try start your emulator again.
Start internet explorer in the Emulator ,try to open any website ,it must ask for the login again,provide your credentials there and log in .Once logged in successfully try to call webservice again ,it should be successfull.
VPN functionality wasn't there in WP8 emulator. It came in WP 8.1. So, you might want to upgrade your project and try.

We have developed a mobile app using Meteor+Ionic2. We use our internal NodeJS server which is not in internet zone. We got the app deployed to our enterprise app store which enables AirWatch VPN tunneling to get the access to server in intranet zone.
Everything works great when tested with iOS device level using "F5 Access" VPN when deployed using Xcode or enterprise app store with NO VPN tunneling . But when download the app from our enterprise app store which does per-app VPN using AirWatch VPN Tunneling, iOS app gets stuck at the splash screen. It is not seems to call any client side or server side code of Meteor+Ionic2.
When redeploying it using development distribution, It seems to be stays at about:blank and not going to localhost and getting "Failed to load resource" error in about:blank.
The same AirWatch VPN Tunneling works great in Android. This issue seems to be happening only in iOS. I checked device level logs and also AirWatch VPN tunnel logs which donesn't report any errors.
I'm not sure whether Meteor+Ionic2 supports AirWatch VPN Tunneling for iOS as none of framework codes get called. Is there anyway to debug the enterprise distributed app? Is VPN-Tunneling not supported in iOS app development using Meteor?
Thanks,

The root cause of the issue seems to be AirWatch config which causes the localhost to be appended with domain name like localhost.mycompany.com. As AirWatch couldn't fix this issue, we dropped plan of using AirWatch VPN tunneling.
I'm developing an asp.net web application for mobile devices (Visual Studio 2013) and I need an emulator for testing (will run on Windows Mobile 6.5 scanners so the WebMatrix iPhone and Windows Phone 7 are not very helpful). I downloaded the Opera Mobile Emulator and it looks very promising for what I need except that I cannot get connected to my localhost. I am very new at this so please forgive me if this has a simple answer. If I use the URL http://localhost:52285/frmChooseDB.aspx I get "HTTP Error 401.2 - Unauthorized". If I replace localhost:52285 with my IP address (I work remotely so my vpn connection has 2 IP Addresses, 1 for client and 1 for server so I'm using the client IP Address but not sure this is the IP Address I should be using) I get "HTTP Error 500.24 - Internal Server Error An ASP.NET setting has been detected that does not apply in Integrated managed pipeline mode." I've tried using 10.0.2.2 instead of my client IP address and get "The page cannot be displayed"
How can I get the emulator to connect to my localhost page? Or if anyone knows of a way I can use the emulators I already have in my Windows Mobile 6.5.3 DTK with Visual Studio 2013, I'd love to hear how.
Thanks.
I created localhost website in asp.net in Visual Studio and i added there a MSSQL connection.
My problem is that I created an app for windows phone 8 but i dont know how to connect this app with database which is on this website.
Can you help me with this?
First of all: your Windows Phone app can't connect to a SQL Server database, so you'll have to create an API.
Since you're using ASP.NET, I suggest to have a look at Web API. In short: you'll have several URL endpoints which return json/xml to your Windows Phone app. It's your job to query the database and return a single item/list of items in the controller of that URL endpoint (this sentence will make sense if you read into creating a Web API).
Next task is connecting to this API. Normally you would host it on a public url, so your phone device can connect to it (a phone doesn't know about your pc's localhost). If you want to use localhost with the emulator for testing, you'll have to execute the tasks mentioned in the quote below as this doesn't work out of the box.
When you create a WCF web service in Visual Studio, by default the
service is hosted in IIS Express and only accepts connections at
http://localhost/. Apps that target Windows Phone OS 7.1 can connect
to the development computer as localhost because the Windows Phone 7.1
emulator uses the network connection of the development computer. The
Windows Phone 8 Emulator, however, configures itself as a separate
device on the network. As a result, an app running on the Windows
Phone 8 Emulator can’t connect to the development computer as
localhost. Before you can connect successfully from the emulator to
the local web service, you have to make two changes:
You have to configure the local web service and web server to accept connections from other devices on the network.
You have to configure the service reference in the Windows Phone app to connect to the service by using the IP address of the development
computer on which the service is running.

I want to create a VPN Connection Manager on user's PC. The connection Manager must set up 3 VPN protocols on user's PC for Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8.
PPTP and
L2TP/IPSec and
OpenVPN
The Connection Manager shall receive server list from our servers.
Please help me to soulve the above issue. I google it since last 2 days bit not find any approproate solution to this. So please help me in this.
You can find details on creating a VPN Connection in .NET using:
Set up VPN Connection using C#
Remote Access Server Spec
However using ASP.NET is unlikely as browsers can't instantiate a VPN connection, they are sandboxed away from that functionality. Even services like GoToMyPC have a desktop client to perform the main functionality.
However you could create the RAS file then provide a download link on a website to it.
You can find the file at:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Network\Connections\Pbk\rasphone.pbk
The person downloading the file can then just import that and have all the set up provided.
As the title suggests, I have been unable to connect (and pair) the google tv remote app with a Google TV emulator running on Ubuntu. I understand that the emulator runs on its own sub-network and therefore has to use redirections in order to connect with anything outside its network.
I have tried the following:
1) Remote control app running on device,
2) Remote control app running on android emulator on same machine as the google tv emulator (For this I had to use a modified version of the app, since there is no wifi on the emulator and the official app would close without wifi)
In configuration (2) I have somehow managed to establish a connection with the tv emulator by using telnet and redirection commands (see this). However the app fails while trying to establish pairing as it tries to build a socket at a new (random) port which is not redirected (I assume).
I would firstly like to know how to find which ports to route for the google tv remote app to successfully connect with the TV emulator. And then how would the pairing action succeed in connecting the controller with the TV emulator through a new socket (which I couldn't redirect)
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
