my host machine is a 64bit Windows 7 Enterprise device. I have vmware player installed and have a virtual machine running XP SP3 for some old fashioned vb6 development. Inside this virtual OS, I can access the internet fine. Virtual Machine Network Adapter is set to NAT.
I also have another virtual machine, running Windows Server 2003 R2 SP2. This is also set to NAT. However, I cannot access the web from inside this machine. Troubleshooting attempted include turning off firewalls, setting the vmware network connections on my host machine to auto retrieve IP & DNS and a long search on google. I found this, http://www.techexams.net/forums/off-topic/27651-vmware-nat-not-working-correctly.html but can't seem to follow the instructions as it's obviously a much older vmware version. (2006!) I also tried disabling "Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration"
Any help would be great. Thanks.
Are you able to connect to your VPS via Remote Desktop? If yes, then check the browser settings for Proxy and see how it connects to internet. If you are using FireFox then you need to follow below steps:
Open Firefox.
Click on Tools -> Options.
Go to Advanced -> Network tab.
Go to Connection -> Settings.

I am running two virtual machines on my local computer (Windows Server 2012 R2 and Windows 10 running on vmware workstation 12). My Server 2012 R2 has SQL Server 2016 Developers edition on there and I have Windows 10. Both of them have SSMS 17.7 on them. I am trying to connect to the server on my Windows 10 machine via SSMS. I tried authenticating them, but the Windows 10 VM does not show up. Even when I try to map or even UNC path into any of them, nothing shows up (on both ends). Now, I have tried bridged connection and serial port for both of them and that does not seem to work. Does anyone have any ideas on what may be the problem or can give me a link to do this in? I have tried this youtube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1&v=GUsyEJda-E0 and VMWare's official site:https://www.vmware.com/support/ws5/doc/ws_devices_serial_2vms.html Thanks in advance!
I would like to remote control a Windows 10 Mobile Phone from a PC. I only found the remote Desktop App which allows a Phone to remote control a PC.
Connecting via RDC to the IP address shown in "Phone, ..., For Developers, Device portal" does not work.
According to Windows Central there is a new feature Project to this PC in the Win10 Anniversary Update:
"
On Settings > System for the Anniversary Update there is a new Project to this PC settings page. This is a new feature in the new version of the operating system, which is essentially another way to remote access devices. The feature allows to project your Windows phone or computer to another Windows 10 PC with access to control their keyboard and mouse using the Connect app.
"
After a lot of digging (searching), I ran across a company called ISL Online. The link is here: ISL Online
For my scenario, I want to remote control the W10M device via the internet/network, similar to how you would using Remote Desktop Connection. This seems to be one of the few, if not the only companies out there that has a solution for this.
I am now using it and it works great.
I have an ASP.net MVC application that I've developed using Visual Studio 2015 Enterprise that is not behaving nicely in IE8, and as much as I'd like to just declare IE8 as unsupported, this is unfeasible from a business perspective at the moment.
So, to test in IE8, I downloaded a VirtualBox containing an instance of windows with IE8 from here.
I've been successful in using this instance of IE8 to connect my organization's dev server (which is running Windows Server 2012r2, IIS 8.5.9600), so I've been able to reproduce the issue. I'd really like to be able to step through what's happening in the debugger, though.
So, I believe I have two options.
Connect to the IIS instance on our dev server using Visual Studio's remote debugging feature.
This is kind of intimidating to me to attempt, because there seem to be a lot of options and I'm unsure how to proceed. It would be nice to be able to figure this out, though, as being able to do remote debugging on the dev server would be very helpful for future development. I tried using the default transport and putting the host for the dev sever in the "qualifier" box in VS, but it just told me the debugger service wasn't running on the remote machine, even though I'm fairly certain it is.
Connect to my local workstation running Visual Studio from virtualbox
This seems like it would be the simplest solution, but I can't figure it out. I tried a few different network modes from virtualbox -- NAT, bridged, and Host-Only, but I could never get the page to load in IE inside the virtualbox. I tried using the ip of my workstation as reported by ipconfig /all (the IP of the normal network adapter for bridged and NAT mode, and the IP of the "Host Only" special adapter in Host Only mode) and the port VS was configured to use. No dice.
Any ideas on how I can move forward with either of these options? Or some third, better option?
I have been using VMWare Fusion 7.1.0 on my MacBook Pro with OSX Mavericks (10.9.5) without a hitch for several months. It was also working fine this morning until about an hour ago when I suddenly started getting an error message for any URL I tried: "Unable to connect to Proxy server."
I've tried both NAT and Bridged network adapters with no success.
There are no new software installs or updates (that I'm aware of), and I've tried restarted both the VM and the Mac itself twice.
Any suggestions?
I'm not sure how it happened, but my Network Proxy settings had gotten changed and set to use a manual proxy setup. I turned that off, and it resolved the error.
Here's how I found and fixed the settings:
Hit the Windows key (to get to the home page and do a text search)
Type "proxy" In the search results, click "Network proxy settings"
On the lower half of the screen under the Manual Proxy Setup, make sure the switch for "Use a proxy server" is turned OFF.
I'm doing web development in (primarily in Visual Studio Express 2013), so I wonder if the it jacked with my settings to allow for localhost development?
Check your VM's OS networking settings and ensure auto-detect proxy settings is not enabled.
Developing an MVC application, i now need to have test other browser versions.
Installed the VM XP on win 7. That is running good. Got IE8 installed and FF 3.6. I know IE9 has a compat mode for 8 and 7, but read some articles that these may not run exactly as their stand alone versions. I got IE8 installed on the VM XP, so now i need to connect to my IIS Win7 localhost.
IS there anyway to do this? and How?
You need to configure your HOST PC's firewall to allow the VM (and perhaps other machines) to connect on port 80.
You can then navigate to http://hostmachinename in the VM.
Although my firewall was off, i was able to connect using the local machine name or ip address, as stated above by SLaks. So, if anyone has there firewall on, you may have to allow the VM to access the ports.
I did set the VMXP >> Tools >> Settings >> Networking to my Nic/ethernet card.
Not sure if this had any effect.
I also had trouble at first not getting the .NET MVC website to run. But then realized our web.config is setup to take only https. I had my website running on 2 ports, one for is for SSL. When i use the https secure port, it connected. So iguess the web app was seeing the VM as another computer tryingto coinnect, that was not local, so it required it to connect by https.
