I am here because of the samba server installed on my Raspberry Pi 3B + which I use to share folders on my network (accessed from windows via the "network drive" function).
In addition to samba, Plex is also installed on the raspberry (reachable via domain.xyz)
THE PROBLEM:
To connect to samba using windows "network drive" I am prompted for a correct password and username. But if I go to Google Chrome, using any device connected to any network (even non-LAN), and type "\domain.xyz\directory" I can see all the files without any kind of restriction or without having to put any password. I would like to avoid this as anyone could see the files, download them etc.
I don't really know how to proceed. I have checked the samba config file but I cannot limit access from the network to shared folders.
Thank you in advance.

Is it possible to access the filesystem directly via USB when i connect it to my Windows PC ?
I don't want to ssh on the system, i want to mount it inside the Windows operating system, so that i can directly write to it without establishing a ssh connection for example.
Any Ideas how to do this ? Or isn't this possible ?
When it comes to simply accessing the file system you can always use some piece of software that will allow you to access linuxish file systems, so you can just plug in the SD card to your Windows machine (A quick google search: http://www.howtogeek.com/112888/3-ways-to-access-your-linux-partitions-from-windows/).
However, if you want your Raspberry running during those actions, you could use some sort of usb to serial cable (like this one: http://www.adafruit.com/products/954), but you will still need to use Putty or some similar software for the serial connection. On the bright side, connecting your pi that way means it will no longer need an external power supply. Just on a side note, what are your concerns about the ssh connection?
How can smartly/remotely control a Raspberry-PI system through android apps. I have found an android app named "Raspberry Control" (source). I have followed all the steps as given in the above URL.
I have installed the android app in my phone (samsung galaxy note, recent release in 2014) followed tried to make a connection of android app with my RPI system (I have followed the steps mentioned in this Youtube video). But as shown in video, when the app started from phone, it needs a SSH connection (showed at 0.25 in the video). Unfortunately, I have faced an error like "check installation on RPi".
Thanks in advance for your precious time. Do I need to install any software on raspberry pi or am I missing any steps?
Secure Shell (SSH) is a network protocol that allows data to be
exchanged over a secure channel between two computers. Encryption
provides confidentiality and integrity of data. SSH uses public-key
cryptography to authenticate the remote computer and allow the remote
computer to authenticate the user, if necessary. SSH is typically used
to log into a remote machine and execute commands, but it also
supports tunneling, forwarding arbitrary TCP ports and X11
connections; file transfer can be accomplished using the associated
SFTP or SCP protocols. An SSH server, by default, listens on the
standard TCP port 22. An SSH client program is typically used for
establishing connections to an sshd daemon accepting remote
connections. Both are commonly present on most modern operating
systems, including Mac OS X, GNU/Linux, Solaris and OpenVMS.
Proprietary, freeware and open source versions of various levels of
complexity and completeness exist.

You found a complete guide/dossier in this link. The install instruction can change depending on the system.
You can control rpi trought ssh simply from windows, linux, android, iOs using a ssh telnet/client. Your app simply after press a button send to rpi the correct ssh comand.
If you have debian(or raspbian) this guide is for you:https://wiki.debian.org/en/SSH.
So, you must enable the ssh service on your rpi. Username and password are user/pass of your rpi account.
thank you for reading my question.
I want to login the virtual machine romotely through rdpweb shipped with virtualbox sdk.Of course, the virtual machine was installed in the virtualbox.The rdpweb(a folder) contains 4 files, webclient3.html, swfobject.js, webclient.js and RDPClientUI.swf.
Firstly, I copy rdpweb to the /.../tomcat/webapp. So i can visit webclinet3.html now. And there is a image which shows what i get.Sorry, i haven't enough reputation for posting a image.I just can put a link to the image.

An error happened. Google says that putting the crossdomin.xml to the root of webapp would solve the bug.The bug may be aroused by flash.But it is invalid for me. Why ?
My physical host is win7(ip:192.168.1.107), and my virtual guest is windowsxp(ip:192.168.1.111). The version of the virtualbox is 4.1.8.
Any help would be appreciated!Thank you very much.
I am so sorry for my poor english.
Update:
Your configuration looks like you have configured your WinXP guest with a bridged network adapter, and you are trying to connect directly to it. Have you enabled Remote Desktop on the WinXP guest? Go to the Control Panel -> System applet, then choose the remote tab and be sure to check both boxes to allow remote desktop connections. You will also need to make sure the firewall will allow this connection to the guest.
VirtualBox also have the capability to serve up a virtual machines display over RDP or VNC (VNC in the OSE - Open Source Edition). If you are wanting to use that capability then you should be connecting to the HOST IP address - not the guest. Since your host is Windows 7 you will also need to adjust the Remote Display Server Port for your guest (in the VM Settings in VirtualBox) to use a port besides 3389. I usually pick 3390. Your screenshot doesn't show somewhere you can enter the TCP port, so this approach may not be supported, but you could try appending :3390 to the IP address.
Original Answer:
Could you post the crossdomain.xml file you are currently using? This is almost certainly a problem with it.
My guess is that your crossdomain.xml file should look something like this:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!-- http://127.0.0.1:8080/crossdomain.xml -->
<cross-domain-policy>
<allow-access-from domain="192.168.1.111" />
</cross-domain-policy>
You could start with just putting * instead of the IP address in the file as well - though that is generally not recommended as it opens the possibility that the flash player can access any resource on any network. It would make it easier to access other virtual machines you might use in the future with different addresses.
I am a web developer and my development platform is Mac. I have installed a copy of Windows XP in VMWare fusion for testing purposes and using IE for previwing my websites. I have Apache running on my Mac with several subdomains, like test.localhost etc.
How can I access the webserver on host OS from the guest OS?
Thank you in advance.
Using Fusion 6.0.2 on OS X 10.9 Mavericks
In the host system (Mac)
turn off your virtual machine
open the "Virtual Machine | Network Adapter | Network Adapter Settings..." menu
in the "Bridget Networking" section choose "Autodetect":
turn on your virtual machine
In the guest system (Win7)
right click on the Notepad application, then select "Run as administrator":
when Win7 asks: "Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer?"
click on the "Yes" button
navigate to: "Computer | Local disk (C:) | Windows | System32 | drivers | etc"
select "All files" in the drop down menu on the right of the "file name:" field
double click the "hosts" file
In the host system (Mac)
open your system preferences and select "Network"; in your connected interface look for the Mac IP:
192.168.1.106 in the example
In the guest system (Win7)
in your notepad window enter the Mac IP followed by the sites you want to reach in your host (Mac) system:
in the example I configured two sites: localhost and caeb.leo
open the browser and you will be able to see the sites hosted on your host system:
Hope it helps!
VMWare Fusion registers an IP address on your Mac and you can use this to point to the host from the virtual machine. You can find it with ifconfig vmnet8. Mine's 192.168.36.1, yours might be the same.
If you're using apache virtual hosts and you try to get http from this address on your virtual machine, it will probably display the default apache page. You'll need to map the domains on your windows host:
Open C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts in Notepad and add your hostnames, 1 per line:
192.168.36.1 test.localhost
Then, when you put http://test.localhost/ in IE, it will route to your Mac's apache virtual host.
Andrew's answer, while correct, is missing a significant portion, namely that vmnet8 is only used when the guest OS is set to use the Bridged network option.
If your guest OS is using the NAT network option, as seen in this Windows host example, you would need to use vmnet1 instead.
In this case, the IP of vmnet1 192.168.119.1 allows access to the host webserver, while the IP of vmnet8 leads nowhere.
note, I provide this answer for those who, like me, have the same question as the title but not the exact same specifics of running Apache as a raw local installation
double note, this answer is a mix of Andrew and Camaleo's answer since neither worked in my set up (not pointing to Mac's ip and Bridged Networking's "Autodetect" wasn't working for some reason?) , not sure if the inclusion of Docker Machine causes the hiccup
If you're setup is like so:
(Host) Mac (example ip 192.168.1.249)
(Guest) Docker Machine (example ip 192.168.99.102)
Apache (port 80)
VMware Fusion 10
(Guest) Windows 10 (example ip 192.168.68.142)
Step 1
From within Windows 10 VM open Notepad as Administrator (right click notepad for the option). Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc and instead of Text Documents(*.txt) select All Files. Open the hosts file and add a hosts entry for your Docker Machine's IP(via docker-machine ls). Per our above example setup, the line would look like so:
192.168.99.102 myapp.test # or some other fitting name
Save changes.
Step 2
Note: No need to stop or restart your virtual machine in VMware Fusion 10 when making network changes.
From VMware Fusion Menus select Virtual Machine / Network Adapter / Network Adapter Settings. Choose Share with my Mac.
if "Share with my Mac" is already selected, select a different network adapter option (like Bridged Network Automatic) and then re-select "Share with my Mac" to ensure host file changes are taken
Step 3
Test changes are in place from within Windows VM by pinging the desired address (e.g "myapp.test" as shown above) or by opening Edge/Chrome checking if the webpage loads
note, using a domain name that ends in .test is recommended or Chrome may still have issues with HSTS errors
I'm finding that I can't access the admin shares on an XP64 box when there's no network connection. Trying to browse to \\localhost\c$ fails (although obviously browsing c: works).
Reason for the question is that the NANT build script for our application uses this format to copy files from one local directory to another, and it's failing when I'm trying to use my laptop on the train (the same problem occurs if I unplug the network cable from my desktop and build). The whole build only uses local resources so should be possible without network connection.
You could install a loopback adapter to fool the computer into thinking it's on a network. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/839013
