I'm using IIS 7.5 on a Windows 8.
I've got a situation where when I go onto my computer's localhost (192.168.2.6) from another computer connected to the same network the URL Rewrite doesn't work, however, when I use localhost on my computer it does.
this behavior is by design. You don't need license for localhost - developers can test for free.
If you have up to 3 sites, you can use Free version of Ape which has no functional limitations.
Otherwise, you need to purchase Full version.

I want to install Damn Vulnerable Web Application (DVWA) on VirtualBox, so I downloaded the DVWA.iso and I'm following this tutorial for its installation.
At step 9, they say to choose internal network, but I don't really understand why (is it a security problem if I don't choose this option?). Because if I select internal network after I've got an IP like 10.0.something and when I try to connect from my computer (not the VM) to 10.0.something/login.php that doesn't work. But if I select bridge networking, I've got an IP like 192.168.something and it works.
Could you explain me why is it important to choose internal network, and why that doesn't work when I choose this?
Internal network on VirtualBox creates a network between boxes on the same host . I can't see the next steps of the tutorial you linked but my guess is that it will ask you to install Kali (or similar distro) on another box on that same host. This is what most people do.
Setting 'internal network' allows the 2 machines to talk to each other without any contact with the outside.
It is considered a security measure because the DVWA is a vulnerable machine so some people think that you shouldn't be giving access to internet to it, but I guess it's more about 'best practice' than a real security risk because in most cases firewalls, routers and ISP will prevent outside attackers to connect directly to that machine in any case.
Anyways, if you are using another computer on the same network to connect to DVWA you should be ok in using a 'bridged' connection on VirtualBox (this it will give to the DVWA an IP sitting on the same network of the host and of your computer). In NAT mode VirtualBox acts like a router, it may still be a good solution for you but not sure if the box is reachable from other computers as I think VB settings may affect this case.
If you are using instead the Host as a penetration testing machine, 'host only' should be good to allow the host and the VM to talk.
Try to put both of the machines on the NAT so that you can ping onto the dvwa from wherever you're doing the hacking from! so essentially both of the machines should be on NAT setting if the they're both on a virtual machine.
I have installed team foundation server adopt the workgroup style, and I find the user manage is difficult, so I want to adpot domain. Can the domain control server and team foundation server been installed on the same machine? Is there need some virtual technology? Thank you!
Yes, the domain controller can be on the same machine, though it is not recommended. You do not need any virtual machines for this. Actually putting a domain controller on a virtual machine will make things more complex for you so if you are just making a domain for the first time I would avoid using a virtual machine to host it.
I am using Pow to serve a Rack application on Mac OS X. http://myapp.dev correctly displays the application. On the same machine I am using VMware Fusion to run Windows 7 while sharing the Mac's network connection. I would like to test the Rack application using Internet Explorer within the VM. http://vmnet8.adapter.ip.address correctly displays the "Pow is installed screen". However, htttp://myapp.dev no longer works.
I understand that Pow creates a DNS resolver and uses it's own DNS server to intercept domains ending in ".dev" and redirect them to localhost. Is it possible to get this to work within the VM also?
In my case I uses virtualbox, but it looks like it is kind the same concern I had to deal with, so:
Get the IP used by your Mac with ifconfig or any other way you prefer. In this case lets assume the IP address is 10.249.158.68
This link explains how to execute POW server from other computer; in our case it will be the virtualized Windows image: http://pow.cx/manual.html#section_2.1.5
So open IE[7|8|9] on your Windows virtual machine and type:
http://myapp.10.249.158.68.xip.io/ ---> replaces "myapp" to the name used in your Mac to refer your project
Create a symlink in your ~/.pow directory called default, and point it to the app you would like to test in VMWare. http://vmnet8.adapter.ip.address will now use that app instead of presenting the default pow screen, as will http://<myhostname>.local.
Am developing a firewall application that is suppose to restrict website/protocols/webs directories system wide that i choose
for example
restrict login.domain.com, but not domain.com
restrict domain.com/passport not domain.com
restrict .tld types e.g .org
pls give me some ideas?
[edit]
Am developing on the windows plat form , from win 2000 to win7, using any vb language vb6 upwards also i want to be able to block any protocol http ftp etc.
You probably want to investigate developing a SOCKS proxy, this is capable of filtering all protocols. Other avenues you could pursue include developing a Winsock LSP or writing your own routing software (like ISA Server).
You'll be hard pressed to do it in Visual Basic 6 or VB .NET however.
For Remote Desktop Sessions in Linux, I want to know if there something available equivalent for what Team Viewer does for windows?
The main advantage I find of Team viewer is that it can bypass firewalls, needs no NAT configurations or port forwarding rules to be setup in the router.
One of the vnc family?
You will have to make the computer visible to the client machine, if you don't want to mess around with firewalls you will need a third party reflector service to connect both of you.
The price of dog food being what it is, we should probably plug copilot, although there are probably a bunch of free ones.
Erm, TeamViewer is not only for Windows - besides full Mac implementation, it also has Linux support (although it's beta). I haven't tried, but... Did you?
