I'm a new comer to using the overseas server. Recently I bought a vps from virmach in order to see foreign websites like google and wiki.
I've been trying for a long time configuring my shadowsocks on my server.
However, when I was using shadowsocks-qt5 to connect my server, it was timeout.
And of course I can't access google correctly.
What I want to ask is the reason why I failed.
Here are things that I do remember to do:
stop the firewall on both computers;
build the .json file which I referred to blogs in China.
Here are the outline of my shadowsocks.json on my server:
{
"server":"0.0.0.0",
"server_port":8388,
"local_address":"127.0.0.1",
"local_port":1080,
"password":"XXXX",
"timeout":600,
"method":"aes-256-cfb"
}
Other useful(maybe) information:
my client OS version: Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS
my server OS version: Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS
the client I choose is from: https://github.com/shadowsocks/shadowsocks-qt5
I could not help but wandered, are there any other possible reasons I've forgot? Can anyone inform me some helpful details to solve this puzzling problems? Thanks a lot!
I have not set up my own VPS but I have instead subscribed to the server provided by caonima.io, so I can't speak for any server related issues. Additionally, I have no affiliation with caonima.io. I did however successfully set up my client on Ubuntu 16.04 after having some issues connecting to GFW-blocked (China's Great FireWall) websites.
From what I understand from my solution, the client configuration is NOT the only step of setup. There are two layers of proxy access that need to be completed:
Client Configuration. Configure your client with the server and connection information. A successful connection looked like this for me with my command line interface
shadowsocks-libev command line client successful connection
System or Browser Proxy Configuration. You will need to configure either your browser or web access tool to use a proxy, or set system-wide proxy settings. To set system wide proxy settings, go to system settings > network > network proxy and enter the proxy information. Setting Socks host to localhost:1080 resulted in successful GFW-blocked website access (as shown below)!

I'm trying to download some files using wget but the problem is the files will only download from specific servers how can I use wget over VPN?
p s: I tried use_proxy=yes -e http_proxy=[server]:[port] but it didn't work I need to connect to a VPN server not a proxy
Install a VPN on your machine first, then run the command
Proxies and VPNs are entirely different things. The proxy functionality won't be of any use to you here.
To use a VPN you have to setup a connection at the OS level (i assume linux ? but i could be wrong) - the wget tool itself wont be involved, you'll just run that after your connection is replaced with the VPN connection (no need for any special flags).
As for how you setup the vpn connection, that differs a lot based on the particular details of your situation. It could involve running openvpn yourinfo.ovpn or something like that, or your vpn provider may offer a separate application to set up the tunnel connection and then adjust your OS's routing table so traffic flows through the tunnel instead of to the normal gateway.
I'm having trouble trying to side-load an add-in in MS Word, getting the error
'ADD-IN ERROR: A problem occured while trying to reach this add-in.' The add-in needs to be hosted on a local docker environment to be integrated in the rest of a web aplication.
Setup
The add-in files are hosted on a local docker machine, accessible through both an ip-address and a https://dev.local address. The add-in is reachable through Internet Explorer and Edge Chromium without any certificate errors. It doesn't matter whether I try to reach the IP address of the locally mapped dev.local, the add-in refuses to load and just crashes. I'm on Word version 2002 build 12527.20194. Another word-addin that we host externally works fine.
What i've tried
I've been messing around with the settings in Internet Explorer (moving the sites to local zone, trusted zone, enabling and disabling the protection there).
I've upgraded Edge to edge Chromium. I've tried to use the Preview of
Edge Developer Tools, but that crashes when the error occurs.
I've tried using Fiddler and activate the runtime logging, but can't get more information on what's going wrong.
I've used the Yoman validation on the manifest.xml and everything checks out.
I've also enabled loopback through CheckNetIsolation LoopbackExempt -a -n="microsoft.win32webviewhost_cw5n1h2txyewy"
I'm pretty much at a loss now: what can I do to get more information on what's crashing the add-in?
OK so I managed to finally get this to work, leaving this here for anyone who might run into the same issues.
Because the local sideloading did work, I figured we needed to emulate the localhost situation with the docker. So I instructed the virtual machine to forward localhost:3000 to the Docker Toolbox port 443. I also copied over the SSL certificates generated by Yoman in <userhome>/.office-addin-dev-certs to the Nginx docker and instructed Nginx to use those SSL certificates for port 443.
I'm not entirely sure if adapting all of the other settings (such as enabling the loopback interface and using the about:flags page to always allow https on localhost are also neccesary, maybe just emulating the webserver on localhost is enough. Hope this helps someone!
I had a Web Server, which is configured with Ubuntu. Some web applications are hosted there and Clients from windows user browse/use those applications through the network. Application accessibility was smoother and faster and also was running without any interruptions.
But all the issues start when I configure the Windows Server and put all the users under a DOMAIN CONTROLLER. Now all the applications accessibility become too slow. Sometimes some pages are not loading at all.
I am mentioning all the IP configurations bellow-
Network Default Gateway: 172.16.0.1/16
Web Server- 172.16.2.2/16
Windows Server (Domain Controller)- 172.16.3.1/16
Using this Windows Server IP as DNS IP for all Client PC and also for the Web server.
Clients IP range: 172.16.1.1 to 172.16.10.254
Please See the Graphical view of my Configuration from the link below:

It was a DNS issue. I restored the Previous DNS settings in all clients and server then everything goes to normal condition.
I'm developing a website on a server using NetBean's HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript and PHP support. I am trying to set up the remote connection so I don't have to use something like Filezilla every time to transfer my files to the server. However, NetBeans is unable to connect to my server over SFTP.
I'm unable to share screenshots with the actual information because this is for work and must be kept confidential.
Host Name is in the form: subdomain.domain.com
Username is just the plain username, it's NOT in the form username#subdomain.domain.com.
I am using a password, not a key.
I am behind my work's proxy but I don't think that could be the cause because NetBeans connecting to my server is the only thing that isn't working.
Filezilla works, Putty (SSH) works, Aptana remote connections (SFTP) works, all my browsers work. Even testing the proxy settings in the NetBeans general options works in NetBeans:
Anyway...
After entering in all of the server's information, I click "Test Connection". After 30 seconds (the timeout), this error pops up:
I tried looking in the NetBeans log to gather more information but it doesn't appear to be logging this error. Is there a certain debug flag I need to enable?
Like I said earlier, Filezilla and Aptana Studio can both connect to my server using the same login credentials.
Any suggestions?
Thanks for reading.
It turns out my system proxy settings (which were configured for my work's proxy) were preventing me from connecting to a server on my work's local intranet.
I had to add a proxy exception for the server and everything worked after that.
I have set up a google cloud sql server using the tutorial on youtube. However, Whenever I try to connect to it through the browser, the connect to it through the browser, the error i am getting is ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED . The firewalls I have set up correlate to whats in the browser. I can also SSH into the VM. But the VM always rejects my connection. I have been trying for days.
Here are my VM Settings allowing http connections
Here is my VM External IP Address
Here is what the browser tells me when i attempt to connect.
Are you referring to this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_kQXgjIfLgo?
In that video there are some steps missing such as install the web server (e.g. Apache) and PHP in the VM. After you install them, you can execute the following command in the VM:
php /var/www/index.php
If it works you can see the source code of the resulting page and if not you'll have an error to solve (maybe a package to install like php-mysql).
Once you can see the resulting page in the VM you can try to load the page through the browser of your machine. If it still doesn't work there is an Apache or network misconfiguration.
