I am using Windows 2012 R2 VM machine in Azure. I have read multiple article to setup Filezilla server in this environment. However, I am not successful. Any one faced this issue? Any solution will be greatly appreciated.
Just remember to add Filezilla to Windows Firewall :-)
I'm dealing with the same thing right now. locally the FTP serv works great. remote I cannot establish a passive connection. Based on my research this is because Azure is not set up for Passive-FTP. I am uncertain if we can get FileZilla to operate in a active-FTP mode. Will post back if I ever get to the bottom of it. Mine currently connects and authenticates but 'cannot retrieve directory listing' when it tries to kick over to passive (transfer) mode.
In addition to checking the Virtual Machine endpoints are open, be sure to also add the appropriate Windows Firewall rules if you have Windows Firewall enabled on your Windows VM.
Yes, We can connect to Azure server via FileZilla Client.
Steps:
Login to Azure portal: https://portal.azure.com
Click on App Services.
Select the Site and then click on Get publish profile.
Save the file and open it in notepad.exe.
The file contains 2 <publishProfile> sections. One is for Web Deploy and another for FTP.
Under the <publishProfile> section for FTP make a note of the following values:
publishUrl (hostname only)
userName --------------------------> This is the information you are looking for
userPWD
Add the PublishUrl to Hostname, Username and password in their respective fields.
Connected.
The link will give the detailed description of the steps flow with images.
Here is the link.

Im a newb to AWS, so please go easy on me. We currently just spun up a custom Windows 10 instance in AWS. I was able to login via RDP successfully, but I'd like to create a new user within the instance so they can login with a different user account using RDP. Any thoughts would be much appreciated.
Okay, After your response to my first, I think I see what you are asking. Plase watch this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rgk2w3dQGSo
Download the RDP. Save it. You can then Edit the .rdp and enter the user name and password you created in Windows.
You can create users in the User Management Console in Windows. Ensure they have the rights needed (Remote Desktop User, Administrator, etc).
Enjoy!
Once an Amazon EC2 Windows instance has been launched, it is just a normal Windows computer.
Therefore, you should use use the standard Admin tools to create the user on the Windows computer, with their own username and password.
It is also recommended that you change the random Administrator password after initial login, or (even better) connect the instance to Active Directory or whatever standard authentication system your company uses.
Technoob here. I just figured out why all of you are having trouble. You need to go to the security group the machine is a part of and open port 3389 to your public IP address (ipchicken.com works). Enjoy
If you are trying to connect from another computer then you have to change the inbound rules.
Go to the security groups of your instance. Go to the inbound rules. Add ipv4 and ipv6 as a new rule and apply it. Download the RDP File and try to connect again. It worked for me.
I have a website hosted on a ftp server, I dont have access to that server except ftp credentials and a plex panel support. I want to use MSMQ to use queues so basically on local I have enabled MSMQ through windows features. But when I publish site on ftp server, it gave error:
Message Queuing has not been installed on this computer
So please help me to sort out this.
Thanks in advance.
If you only got FTP-credentials you are stuck with what the system administrator has set up for you. There is no chance you can get MSMQ running there without the sysadmin doing the installation work.
I am trying to Remote Desktop onto an Azure instance from Mac OS X, but can't find a tool that allows me to do it. Address and username is fine, but none of the clients seem to have the capabilities to include the instance information.
I have so far tried the Miscrosoft RDC and CoRD but to no avail.
Has anyone succeeded in using RDP to an Azure instance on a Mac?
By default, you can't connect to an Azure Windows server except through the Windows Remote Desktop client.
To connect from OS X, whether through CoRD or the Microsoft Remote Desktop client for Mac, you need to turn off network level authentication:
Connect to the Azure server using the Remote Desktop client on a Windows machine
Under Control Panel, go to System, then open 'Advanced system settings'
On the Remote tab, uncheck "Allow connections only from computers running Remote Desktop with Network Level Authentication (recommended)"
Re-connect from OS X
you need to create connect from microsoft remote desktop on mac
add ip, user, password
and you can connect now
if you still can't connect , check your azure endpoint setting
set the port that your firewall can pass
I have the same problem with you, and I think there is nothing to do with the network level authentication. The main reason is the default remote desktop app will connecting through port 3389, but your VM's default endpoint set another public port, here is what i do to solve it:
Download the latest version of Microsoft Remote Desktop app at Mac app store.
Add the port after your connection's DOMAIN/IP like yourvmdomain.com:yourpublicport. You will find the public port on endpoint setting tab. To me, the public port of Remote Desktop is 58494, so the connection will be xx.xx.xx.xx:58494.
This works for me.
Download the new Microsoft remote desktop client, which will allow you to connect to Azure instances without changing the configuration.
(As suggested in the comment from Kim Burgess)
It's tricky to connect to an Azure Cloud Service (aka Web or Worker Role) from a Mac, since PaaS instances sit behind a load balancer. You therefore need to specify which instance to connect to via cookies.
Royal TS supports cookies, so I got this working:
Install Royal TS free version (http://www.royalapplications.com/ts/osx/features)
Add the Remote Desktop plugin
Create new connection
Enter usual details (server/username/password)
Advanced > Connection > Load Balance Info > Cookie: mstshash=Your.Server#Your.Server_IN_0
This cookie info is available in the RDP file you can download for your instance from the Azure management portal (just open it in a text editor).
I use the Microsoft Remote Desktop application on OSX to connect to an Azure VM.
Recently I set up a VM from a Windows machine and was able to connect successfully using the admin username and password, but found that I had to reset the admin password to connect from OSX.
You can easily reset the password from the Azure portal for the VM. Go to "Support + troubleshooting/Reset Password".
I often have to enter the user name in the form:
PC name: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:yyyyy
Gateway: No gateway configured
User name: localhost\user.name
Hope that helps someone.
To access Azure instances from a MAC download Microsoft Remote Desktop client in Appstore. The default RDP client Azure provides doesnt work on a MAC. Worked for me
Check that your Networking Inbound Port rules (typically port 3389, but will change behind a load balancer) for the Azure VM allow you in.
How can I configure Visual Studio remote debugging when:
My developer machine is a member of an AD domain, and my username is "DevelopersName".
The "remote" machine is on the same Ethernet segment, but is not part of the domain.
The "remote" machine must run software under "RemoteUserName".
Most documentation I can find suggests that you need have both machines in the same domain and with identical usernames. That's not possible here.
I could possibly add my username to "remote", but the software still needs to run under "RemoteUserName.
If it helps, I could add 2nd network card to my developer machine and directly connect the "remote" machine.
Using VS2008, but will be moving soon to VS2010.
Thank you.
Sorry, but I've just spent the last 10 hours trying to debug your exact problem. My findings are not good.
You need to get your accounts synced, especially if you are using your remote app to connect to other systems in your SOA environment, ie: Sharepoint, AD.
You can to some extent get remote debugging to work, if you create an account on your local machine with the same name as that of your remote machine (lets do it like this rather rather than working with the domain account).
You then need to make sure the remote service is running under this account, and its a member of the administrators group. And by this I mean hold down control, and right click run as - with the remote debugger, and select the user (not required if remote server is logged in as the required user).
Run the wizard it will open the required ports, use Authentication, because non authentication won't debug managed code. Breakpoints are never met, and there is nothing you can do about this.
On your local dev machine, log off your domain account, and log onto the local account with matching name as the account on server thats running the remote service.
Now you stand a change of remote debugging. If you can't do any of the above, sorry there is no workaround, its entirely dependent on the user account and having the right permissions.
If you don't want to create a local account, try starting our debugger via command prompt using the following command:
runas /user:[user#machinename] /netonly [debugger.exe]
E.g.:
runas /user:john#mypc123 /netonly devenv.exe
I assume it's managed debugging you're talking about (for native debugging there's a remote debugging solution with no authentication). In this case, I would suggest that you use a local user to launch the debugger on your machine. If this local user's name and password match "RemoteUserName"'s name and password, it should work.
(Note that this does not preclude you from using the AD account to log in to your workstation, you just need to set up another account and use runas to launch Visual Studio.)
I've installed TFS 2008, but I can't seem to access the server. When I try to connect to it in Visual Studio, I can't. If I try by browser on a remote PC, I get a generic page cannot be displayed. On the server, I get a 403. Nothing was touched in IIS and the service is running as a Network Service. Any ideas?
try:
http://localhost:8080/Services/V1.0/ServerStatus.asmx. This will tell you if TFS is up and running. If you are getting anything else you need to look into IIS issues.
I wrote a blog post on diagnosing these types of TFS connections.
http://blogs.msdn.com/granth/archive/2008/06/26/troubleshooting-connections-to-tfs.aspx
The very first thing I do is confirm that it works for a known-good configuration – usually my workstation.
Providing that works and the server appears to be functioning, the next thing I do is ask the user to call the CheckAuthentication web service using Internet Explorer.
The URL for this is: http://TFSSERVER:8080/services/v1.0/ServerStatus.asmx?op=CheckAuthentication
By doing this check, I am doing four things:
Eliminating Team Explorer from the picture
Eliminating the .NET networking stack from the picture
Ensuring that Windows Authentication is working correctly (that’s why I say IE)
Ensuring that proxy settings are set correctly
In most cases I’ve seen, the TFS connection issues are because the proxy settings have changed or are incorrect. Because .NET and Visual Studio use the proxy settings from Internet Explorer, it’s important to have them set correctly.
In rare cases it’s beyond this. That’s when I start looking at things like:
Can you resolve the server name?
Can you connect using the IP address?
Are there HOSTS file entries? (see: c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts)
Can you ping the server?
Can you telnet to port 8080?
Does the user actually have access? Run TfsSecurity.exe /server:servername /im n:DOMAIN\User to check their group memberships
Have you changed your domain password lately? In some cases they’ll need to logoff the workstation and log back on again to get a new security token.
Is the computer's domain certificate valid? update the certificate: gpupdate /force
Hope this helps.
Turns out the time and date on my computer was not "close enough" to the time and date on the tfs server. Changed my system clock setting and problem went away.
What happens if you send a simple HTTP request to the server directly?
ie:
telnet 8080 [enter]
GET / HTTP/1.1[enter]
[enter]
[enter]
That might give a hint about whether IIS is actually serving anything. If you can do that on the server, what about from a different machine? If the results are different a good guess is there are some security/firewall issues somewhere. HTH a little.
I went through everything on a similar problem.
I logged onto my tfs server and connected directly there.
I also used a TFS admin tool I downloaded some time ago from Microsoft, and made sure I was in all the right groups and projects.
I then went back to the client PC with the problem, tried the services/1.0/serverstatus.asmx?op=CheckAuthentication Url again, and it worked this time.
AFter that full service was restored to my PC.
So I don't have the exact answer, but I would go through the checklists presented by Grant Holliday in his answer.
Add this to the cases for future users, as i had this issue on server 2016...
if your firewall allow only Domain and Private Network, it may not work on client. make sure you give public permission, if server network is set to public...
