Access to node server and react app hosted on vm via internet - node.js

I'm trying some stuff with vms (vmware) and nodejs.
I setup 2 vms runing ubuntu 20.04.5 LTS with static ips let say : 192.168.10.3 and 10.4 each accessible via ssh over internet with my public ip :
ssh -p 103 admin#\<public-ip\>
ssh -p 104 admin#\<public-ip\>
I opened those ports(103 and 104) on windows firewall and forwarded them on the router, everything is fine till now.
In one vm (10.4) i installed the node server running on port 3000 ( which i can access from windows in : 192.168.10.4:3000) and a react app (it can be anything using a different port) on 3001.
How can i access the node server or/and the react app using my public ip ?
i tried on the browser : public-ip:104 but firefox blocked it "This address uses an unusual network port for web browsing. As a security measure, Firefox dropped the request."
public-ip:3000 is not working either

How do I install Gitlab on a VM?

I installed Gitlab on a VMWare VM, using NAT, where the VM is running Ubuntu 16.04. Everything installed OK, but I can't access it via the browser. It says I need to configure an external URL. I only need to access the VM from my Mac (where the VM is running). How do I configure a URL so I can access it from my Mac?
Thanks!
When the VM is running locally on the Mac in NAT network config, this means that the ports are available directly on the Mac IP. If you only need to access it from the Mac itself, you could access the application at the port via the loopback (local only) IP 127.0.0.1
If gitlab is running on port 80 in the VM, on the Mac you should be able to access with http://127.0.0.1
If this doesn't work, there are a few options:
Confirm no other service/webserver is running on port 80 locally on the Mac. If there is, you should change the port of the gitlab webserver in your VM, and access using http://127.0.0.1:port
Confirm that port 80 is allowed in the VM firewall, and that the webserver is running https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-and-configure-gitlab-on-ubuntu-16-04

Angular 4 Failed to load resource: net::ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED

I guess I will start at the start of my application.
I am making a full mean-stack application and I want it to run in docker. To use docker I am using a virtualbox with Ubuntu. When I run my docker-compose, everything is working on localhost:4200. Now I want to open my application on my host machine (Windows 7).
When I go to my application via (ip addres should be kept secret, right?) xxx.xxx.xx.xxx:4200/login the page looks fine, but I get these errors:
I am using Angular cli 1.4.1 with node 8.4.0
Why am I getting these errors and how do I fix them?
My docker-compose
Your server which is listening on port 4200 is listening on your xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx interface (not necessary to hide lan IP, but nevermind...).
Your angular application is running on your host system. the localhost is the localhost of your host system, not the guest. so you have two solutions:
changing your urls inside the angular application to point to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:4200 instead of localhost:4200.
Forwarding your 4200 port from your host to your guest system using virtual box :
shutdown guest.
select guest and click on settings
go to the network tab.
click on "advanced"
then select "ports redirections" and bind your host 127.0.0.1:4200 to your guest's 4200 port

Unable to connect to cloud9 over LAN

I've installed cloud 9 Ubuntu 14.04 (Desktop), and executed it by typing:
node [cloud9folder]/server.js -p 8080 -a :
I was able to connect to it by typing localhost:8080 (On the same computer that is running cloud 9) but when I went on another computer on the same network, I was unable to connect by typing [ip address of the computer running cloud9]:8080 into the browser. The browser returned: "Webpage not available (ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED)."
I know the server computer is working, I was able to access it's apache2 website but for some reason it is unable to connect to cloud 9.
How do I fix this?
also add -l 0.0.0.0 by default server is listening on 127.0.0.1 which is not public

How to access nginx server from host machine, installed on guest VM ?

Host Machine - Win 7
Guest - Fedora
I have installed nginx web server on guest fedora machine and I can access the webpage inside guest machine using the interface address. How can I access the web page from host machine's browser ?
I am using bridged connection.
Router is assigning 192.168.0.16 to the guest machine's interface. I tried same address in my host machine but it doesn't work.
Based on your description:
First you should check your web application's config. You don't mention which type of your web application running on your Apache server, some are launched with the specific ip argment 127.0.0.1( or localhost), so kind of these web application can only be visited on your localhost computer. You should change the ip argument to 0.0.0.0
Second if the "Fisrt" failed, check the connection of the two server(host and your guest) by using telnet.
On your Win7, you can use the command:
telnet ip port
for example:
telnet 192.168.0.16 80
80 is the default port of Apache Http(s) Server.
if the command don't show the "connection refused" error, your Apache server is goood, so it might be something wrong of your web application.
If that, show me your error msg then we go on further.
