My System is configured to have the Windows firewall which blocks the outbound connection and allow connection only through fiddler. In this scenario, when I am trying to send an Https GET request from a node js express server using https node module, it is failing. But when I try the same request from the browser it is successful. What might be the issue because of which it is failing?
And when I add a TCP port rule in windows firewall to allow 80 and 443 rule, the node js request also succeeds.
We need to add a rule in windows firewall outbound rules to allow the application to send a request.
Steps to add the rule :
Launch “Windows Defender Firewall”
Go to “Advanced Settings”
Select “Outbound Rules” and select “New Rule”
Click “Next” and click on “browse” and select the application. In this case the “node” from nodejs folder.
Click “Next” to go to action page.
Choose “Allow the connection” radio button.
Click “Next”
Click “Next” again
Specify some name in the “Name” field and click Finish.

I have been trying to implement a sort of captive portal for users connected to my windows 10 hotspot, I am just trying to make it so when users connect to the hotspot they either get a pop up of the site I'm hosting locally or when they go to any domain in their browser it redirects them to the local site.
I have been trying to follow an already existing post on windows hot spot captive portals but I cannot get it working because I just don't know enough about how it works.
1. Start windows mobile hotspot.
2. Go to Network adapters => Select hotspot adapter => Change IPv4 settings => set 127.0.0.1 as DNS server.
3. Start dnschef with --fakeip = 192.168.137.1
4. Start an http server on 192.168.137.1 and give 302 redirect response to all requests.
I was following these instructions and I was able to get to step 3. At step 3 when the device tries to connect to a domain it has never connected to before it is properly redirected to my site but when I connect to a site like google.com it just doesn't load and wont redirect. It also wont give a captive portal popup when you first connect to the network.
I cannot get past step 3 because I do not understand how to Start an http server on 192.168.137.1 and give 302 redirect response to all requests. Some help on how I would be able to do this would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
I am using windows server 2008 R2 standard and I have installed a node.js app that runs fine in port 3000.
In windows server, the admin used ISS to create a Default Web Site , so the port 80 is open to everyone. This works fine, I go to mywebsite.com and I get the ISS7 logo.
I cannot run the node app directly on port 80. I have to use a proxy to send traffic from mywebsite.com:80 to localhost:3000. (is it localhost? I guess it is)
I try to do this by using Application Request Routing. According to this tutorial
I install ARR and create a new server farm named "redirect".
I put windows server IP as the server address, click advanced settings, click applicationRequestRout, change httpPort to 3000 (my node app) and hit Finish
So now the server farm named redirect represents my node on port 3000 , right?
I go to server farms > redirect > servers, double click on the one server on the list and hit Connect to the server
Click URL rewrite, Add Rule, Blank Rule under Inbound Rules
I name it "redirecctrule", pick "Wildcards" under Using and then hit Test pattern.
I put /* in Input data to test and /* in pattern (wildcard), so everything that comes from mywebsite.com can go to node , port 3000, right? Maybe here is my mistake? I dont know.
Then I hit Test, the test is ok, so I close and hit Yes to Save that rule. I also pick "Route to server farm" under Action and hit Apply on the right.
Node is running. If I go to mywebsite.com on my browser, I still get the ISS logo, not the website from node. I restarted the server and tried again, still nothing.
What am I missing here? How can I redirect traffic from ISS Web Site port 80 to node app, port 3000?
Any advice would be great, I am trying all day and it does not work.
Thanks
I'm trying to install this software on my computer. http://remaddersoft.wixsite.com/remadder/download
It says:
"In order to be able to use ReMaDDer software, you must be able to establish connection with ReMaDDer server (matalab.hopto.org, port 5432) which is used for back-end fuzzy match processing. Contact your administrator to configure firewall to pass connections on matalab.hopto.org, port 5432."
How do I let the firewall connect to that software on windows 10?
Following below steps you can open the specific port on windows 10 -
Open firewall ports in Windows 10
You can manually permit a program to access the internet by opening a firewall port. You will need to know what port it uses and the protocol to make this work.
Navigate to Control Panel, System and Security and Windows Firewall.
Select Advanced settings and highlight Inbound Rules in the left pane.
Right click Inbound Rules and do the same for outbound rules and select New Rule.
Add the port you need to open and click Next.
Add the protocol (TCP or UDP) and the port number into the next window and click Next.
Select Allow the connection in the next window and hit Next.
Select the network type as you see fit and click Next.
Name the rule something meaningful and click Finish.
I've got 2 applications running on my local machine. One sharepoint and another IIS application:
localhost:43442
localhost:5080
I've installed ARR and need to configure it to run these 2 apps on a host and port but when adding a new server, it only accepts a server name rather than its port as well.
Any help?
For me, I needed to add a server to my server farm, called localhost. Clicking Advanced Settings... lets you specify the http and https ports. Set those to the ports that you would like your domain proxied to.
After that, create an inbound rule for URL Rewrite that matches the HTTP_HOST condition with a pattern of your website domain that the server is acting as a proxy for. Select Route to Server Farm for the action and select the specified server farm.
I added a new Inbound Rule and it worked :)
i created a site on my iis7 it's like http://localhost:88/my
i also can access it like this http://myip:88/my
but when a friend of mine from a remote computer tried to access it like this http://myip:88/my it gives him 404 not found
anybody can tell me what should i do to make it work from remote ?
Check your firewall. You will have to open TCP Port 88.
Part 4: Opening Up to the Outside
World
Windows Firewall blocks the World Wide
Web Services port by default (Port
80). With this port blocked, other
machines cannot connect to your web
server. This severely limits the
scope of potential web site viewers.
So, in order to show your new web site
and server to the outside world you
must add an exception to the Windows
Firewall.
Click Start and type firewall into the Search bar and press enter.
(Note: Make sure you select Windows
Firewall and not Windows Firewall with
Advanced Security)
Click Change Settings
Click the Exceptions Tab and Scroll to World Wide Web Services
(HTTP).
Click the check box and click OK.
Now your machine is accessible to the
outside world. You can connect to
your machine by typing in the IP
address of your server into another
machine’s web browser.

If firewall setting is not the issue (say it's turned off), find out public IP of your server (ex. 192.168.0.152), then add it to http listener on the server itself
Open cmd and type:
netsh http add iplisten 192.168.0.152
Go Control Panel>System and Security>Windows Firewall>Allowed Programs-> then check all " World Wide Web Services(Http) tab"
Its is worked for me
