I am developing an application for Mac, and wants to add firewall rule when my application launches,
would like to know the entry point, if anyone has any idea,
I guess, i need to modify
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.sharing.firewall.plist
But this file is not present in my Machine
and any info about structure of this file ?
Requirement is something like this
When it runs, then browser shouldn't allow to open some particulars website, so i believe, this is going to be a application level firewall.
Thanks for looking at it,
Finally i am using ipfw to do so,
but still not yet clear about how to configure the rule

I have a developer that came to me with and issue. He is remotely managing one of his sites on one of our development servers and all of a sudden he lost all of the icons in IIS for this specific site..
All other sites display his icons correctly and when I have him test on another computer everything displays correctly.. So what could have gone wrong on his machine? It was working but is now not working.. Any help here would be greatly appreciated.. Never seen this before and cant seem to figure out what caused it to just go away.. There should be so many more options for him.. Plus if you can see he lost the ability to see the folders on this site also.. And it is every site on this server.. But like I said it is just on his computer, he goes to a different computer he has access to everything..
Guess I cant post a picture.. But if you need to see it I can send it to you if you need to see what I am talking about..
Come to find out he was ignoring the prompt that he was getting saying that there were new versions of the tools to download on his machine that are on the server.. He just hit Cancel instead of selecting them and hitting ok to install the DLL's and enabling them.
I've been testing MTWWW for about a couple of days, and I've come to notice something.
I have to add the device to MTWW by going to a url on the device that looks like this,
protocol://hostname:+port/mobile
However, sometimes my device can't reach that address neither when I restart eclipse. When that happens I typically restart my computer and everything is fine and dandy again.
There was even one time that on that same screen that display the QRCode and URL to add a device, a notification appeared which showed something close to "RTW server could not start properly" or something like that.
This led me to believe that MTWW uses some other web server other that WL server to receive the recordings from the instrumented apps.
This also led me to believe that perhaps sometimes when the server tries to start the ports are already binded to some socket and it fails the initialization. Just speculation here.
However if there is a slight sense in what I written, is there a way to inspect the status of the RTW server, some dashboard perhaps?
Besides that, what should I do to fix when the RTW server didn't start properly? Rebooting the computer is pretty lame, there must be something more clever to do.
Oh, I've found this behavior on a mac osx box, on a windows one I haven't done so much testing.
Thanks in advance.
There is no dashboard for the server. But if yoy think that the issue come from the port, you can change it in the preferences. Please read http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21678980
Hope its help
The great thing about PHP is that if you have something like
clothes.com, clothes.com/men.php, clothes.com/women.php
Then if you only edit the men's page, only that particular "app" will be restarted.
But on rack/Sinatra I have to touch the restart.txt file to restart the ENTIRE website.
Is there a way around this problem, so that users browsing other parts of the site wont have any problems while another part of the site get edited?
(i'm using mod-passenger on Apache, not that it's important..)
This would be true in all cases anyway for editing (non-inline) views (not layouts).
Aside from that, if you're really worried about this then I'd suggest using versioned folders to hold the application code. When you do a deployment, change the proxy to point at the newer version. Those who had already made requests will remain on an instance of Apache and the application that is already running, as long as their request remains alive, and seemlessly (unless you've broken something with the code) move to the new code on the next request.
It's also a convenient way to rollback to the/a previous version quickly and easily.

I am trying to make a new website on an IIS server, of which has websites that are using Windows Authentication just fine. However, for the life of me, I cannot figure out why my new website refuses access (401.2)
Basically, I create a new website and add a single .html file ("Hello, World"). I can access it just fine. But turn off Anonymous, leaving on Windows Authentication, I get prompted for ID/PWD, ending always a 401.2
So, I decided to make a new website as a copy of the existing working website on the same webserver. I've even gone and made the new website share the same App Pool and the same Physical Path. This way, as far as I can tell, the only possible differences between the two websites is now the IIS configuration of the two sites. Still can't authenticate.
I've switched the bindings, doesn't help.
I've even compared the settings in applicationHost.config, making sure they're equal.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
I've used this article several times for problems like these with some success: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/david.wang/archive/2005/07/14/howto-diagnose-iis-401-access-denied.aspx Hope it helps!
I was advised to try running iisreset from the command line. This turns out to be what I needed all along. Seems some configuration changes do not get applied properly, even when restarting the particular website, until IIS itself is restarted.
I have Lazarus(quite a lot like Delphi) application which downloads few files from https://example.com/UpdateFolder. And i was wondering if anything can be done in order for APP to know that it is downloading files from right website? Because if I am right there is a way for hacker to trick APP into going to different website and downloading wrong files and I think it is done somehow by editing system32/driver/etc/hosts file. I would appreciate any suggestions
It depends entirely on your application that downloads the files. If it's able to handle SSL you have nothing to worry about AFAIK, since you need a trusted certificate before it'll make the connection, which will be hard to fake with a Windows host file edit.
Alternatively, and this is why we have domain names in the first place - so a last resort, you could hard-code the IP address of the server that contains the updates and do a trace to make sure the IP of the website your application is connecting to, is the same one you have on file.
However, this makes it very difficult if that IP changes, since you then need to roll out a new update of your entire application (or dll's responsible) just for that, and makes the process that much harder to maintain...
