I got a localhost service on my machine, but I don't remember installing it lol.
And now that I am really need it, I can't figure out who is running this service... It's just a simple page of "It works!".
Been trying searching my win7 for "It works!" keyword but found nothing. And all the index.html files seems to be not it. So it's really funny now...
Anyway I can find it out?
Edit:
This is the my localhost icon , I even search it on Google images without any result...

You have Collabnet Subversion Edge installed on your machine. This brings along it's own customised setup of Apache.

Find the folder c:\inetpub\wwwroot\yourservice, if you are using the iis to host your services.

I find it odd the other day that ping ..localmachine works on Windows 7
If you Win+R, type \\..localmachine\ it will open local machine share folder.
I have a web server listen on 0.0.0.0 port 8080
This python script works
urllib2.urlopen('http://..localmachine:8000').read()
And this is not defined in hosts file.
There seems not documentation mentions this, can anyone share some knowledge with this?
How does these kind of host names work on Windows? Any other pre-defined host names I should know?
Are there any significant security considerations we need to take care in our code?
Thanks to user ShaneMadden answered my question here
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms738520(v=vs.85).aspx
On Windows Server 2003 and later if the pNodeName parameter points to a string equal to "..localmachine", all registered addresses on the local computer are returned.

I need to automate the updating/installation of MS patches in some remote machines.
I can't use MDT because there is already a different subsystem handling mass software/patch distribution on all the workstations.
Therefore the easiest/fastest way would be to connect with a script to each machine and run a command (if it exists) that would start updating the system just as if a user had clicked Control Panel/Windows Update/Update now...
I searched and found the wuauclt utility which I try to run on a machine and check if it works and it just doesn't do anything.
I tried doing
wuauclt /a /detectnow
and then
wuauclt /r
It doesn't report that "The command does not exist" or anything like that. It just doesn't output anything at all and I see no updates being installed in the background.
Any ideas?
I read this article yesterday, I think it might be able to help you. Please give it a look and let me know if it helps.

I've been following this blog post, which claims to work to allow OS X to see IIS on my Windows VM (I'm using VMware Fusion):
http://blog.prabir.me/post/Expose-IISExpress-to-Mac-from-a-Windows-Virtual-Machine.aspx
I followed the blog points to the letter and can see IIS inside the VM in the browser fine, but not on OS X
Anyone got any idea what I might be missing config wise?
Thanks.
For anyone interested, the issue I was having was that my network adapter in VMware fusion was set to NAT.
It should be set to Bridged, so that the VM appears as a separate address to the mac. Then the tutorial mentioned in the question works perfectly.
Hope this helps someone!

I have a network server named acesso and I access it in IE by: http://acesso/caiautorizacao/ for exemple...
But if I try this url on firefox, it redirects to www.acesso.com/caiautorizacao.
May it can be a configuration problem? Maybe changing some value of about:config ??
Edit: Google Chorme shows 404 error in this same url.
Edit[2]: My firefox version is 7.0.1 on a Windows 7 Home Premium x86.
This is a known Mozilla bug. People are asking for it to be resolved, but so far no good.
Try changing the value of both browser.fixup.alternate.enabled and keyword.enabled to false from about:config
add
127.0.0.1 acesso
to your hosts file

i am running xampp on my windows 7 machine. i've downloaded the sourcecode for concrete5 5.4.2.2 (that is a PHP-based CMS) but some directories are not writeable, see screenie:
since there is no such thing as chmod on windows i am now wondering how to make the folders writeable by the webserver?!
There are two steps that should help you. First, check what user the web server is running as. If you can't see it easily, just Task Manager - it should show you. Then, once you know that user, give him read/write permissions through windows explorer to that folder. Alternatively, you could give "eveyone" access this way, but that has some serious security implications.
