I'm building a MOSS 2007 site on Windows 2008 R2, 64 bit.
Not wanting to use my machine name or IP in the URL, I made an entry in my hosts file:
127.0.0.1 mydev.com
I can surf to the URL, http://mydev.com, but when I try to log in (Windows Authentication), I am denied.
I am able to successfully log in if I take out the hosts file entry, and surf to http://
Do I need to edit something else for the authentication to work when I want to use a custom URL like mydev.com that is only mapped in the hosts file?
I needed to do this:
http://www.information-worker.nl/2009/06/23/disableloopbackcheck-on-windows-server-2008/
Do you have Kerberos authentication enabled? Then it is not so easy, since you try to access mydev.com, but your server cannot provide such authentication ticket. I'm not very common with Kerberos internals, but I have seen my servers act like this.

after a servercrash we installed TFS on a new server. I used Application Tier only for
restoring the databases, and in the Team Foundation Express Administration Console everything shows up.
When on the server I surf to the URL I get a Windows login screen and after entering credentials it proceeds to the website.
However, if I try this from an PC, the URL is not reachable.
I've checked the firewall (even disabled it for test), put port 8080 is added.
I gues something is wrong with the authentication, hence the Windows login screen, but fail to find.
Anyone ideas?
I use TFS Express 2012.4 on Server 2019
Since you are able to access http://localhost:8080/tfs url and work properly.
This tell you TFS is up and running. So issue should not related to IIS side.
Try to disable loopback by creating registry key under the
location
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\DisableLoopbackCheck
and assigned the value “1”.
Details follow this blog.
If you do not want to disable your firewall during daily usage. Make sure Port 8080 is open in Windows firewall.
Also take a look at this similar issue: TFS url with server name is not working
I am working with a designer and I'd like them to have access to the interactions I've implemented on the site we're working on. However this time, I have 2 issues. My localhost is configured to a subdomain:
http://store.teststore:3000/ and we're on different networks. Is there anyway to work around this?
ngrok should work for you. Download and install it following these instructions here: https://ngrok.com/download. Documentation on how it is used can be found here https://ngrok.com/docs. Once installed running the below command should work for you (depending on the hosting environment):
ngrok http -host-header=rewrite store.teststore:3000
You will need to give the URL generated by ngrok and displayed in the cmd prompt to the designer.
Update: Handling absolute redirects
Based on your comment it sounds like, after login, your site does an absolute redirect (the full URL is specified). If it is possible I would change your code to do a relative redirect where the domain is omitted. You could also make your root domain configurable in the absolute redirect and configure it to be the ngrok domain provided for now. Lastly, you could attempt to configure your DNS with a CNAME record following ngroks Tunnels to custom domains documentation. This last option, however, requires a paid for ngrok subscription.
Install ngrok if you haven't yet and CD into your project directory and invoke ngrok. Note Your application must be running locally on the same port number ngrok will be running.
I have a website that we used to access via Umbraco. It was decommissioned on 11/22 to a new site with same name. There is some content we need to retrieve. I was thinking maybe we could access it via IP but that doesn't work. Anyone know how to accomplish this so we can log on to the old site via umbraco without interfering with the new site.
If you log into the server and find the site in IIS, you could set up new bindings on that site, so it responds to decommissioned.mysite.com. Then add a host file entry to your local machine, so decommissioned.mysite.com sends you to your decommissioned site.
When your computer performs a DNS lookup, the host file is the first place it will look. This means you can use the host file to bypass the DNS settings configured for the public. It comes in handy when you have a dev version of a site that isn't ready for the world, yet. On windows you can find the host file at C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts. You will probably need to run your text editor as an administrator to edit the file. This is what host file entries look like:
123.123.123.123 mydomain.com www.mydomain.com
321.321.321.321 www.myotherdomain.com blog.myotherdomain.com
Here is a bit of background on the setup:
I have a server called "File-Serv".
I have an NS entry that redirects clients.mydomain.com to the ip address of the modem which in turns forwards the request to the computer (this is all working perfectly so far)
I have apache running on port 80 and one IIS site running on port 8080
I installed TFS and changed the binding of the TFS site to use port 8081 so that it doesn't clash with the rest.
I installed team explorer on the server and was able to connect to TFS and add a project, etc.
The problem is now that i want to access TFS from all other computers on the network and more importantly still access TFS if i'm not connected to the local network but i can't
What i have tried is to change the notification url to clients.mydomain.com and change the binding on IIS to match. when i go to clients.mydomain.com:8081/tfs/web it asks me for a username and password
I do not have active directory installed and i have created users for all the users needed on the server but when whatever combination i put for username/password, i can never ever log in.
I've tried the following usernames with no success:
Administrator
File-Serv\Administrator
clients.mydomain.com\Administrator
I'm really not sure what i'm missing here.. I have read forums upon forums without any resolution. Help!
P.S. This is my first question on stackoverflow after using the site religiously for 2 years now!
I am running the ColdFusion 9 Developer edition on my local Windows XP machine. I've installed it with the embedded web server, which I believe is JRun.
Right now, I can only access web pages at 127.0.0.1:8500/whatever - with all of my apps being placed within separate directories, i.e.: 127.0.0.1:8500/app1, 127.0.0.1:8500/app2, etc.
I want to set it up so that I can access each app at: app1.mylocalserver.com, app2.mylocalserver.com, etc.
I have edited the hosts file so that these domains will be routed to my local machine. But how do I get CF9/Jrun to recognize these urls and handle them correctly? I have been playing with the WEB-INF/jrun-web.xml file but that seems to handle virtual file mappings only.
Thanks in advance for any help!

I wouldn't suggest using the built in web server. Can't you install Apache or use IIS?
if you changed it so those names are directed to your IP, shouldn't you just be able to go into site management and reference it there?
I use the built in one as well (for CF 9 on XP) and so far i haven't had an issue with it (been using it this way for over a year)
I have no idea to configure multiple URL. In IIS, it's simple to way configure multiple URL with different ports or binding different IP address.
