Hi everybody,
I'm having trouble with NAT configuration. I have VMWare Workstation 7.0.1 installed on Ubuntu 8.04 on a server located at a dedicated datacenter. I successfully configured NAT so that I can access the VM web server via the host's IP and port 7000. What I want to know is, if it is possible to do the same, but instead to redirect traffic to port 80 on the VM, do it to port 443, so that I can use encryption. I already tried mapping a different port outside to port 443 inside, but I keep getting an error on my browser: Error 107 (net::ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR): SSL protocol error.
Does anyone have an idea how I can correct this? Any help is hugely appreciated!
Cheers,
I can't believe no one has an answer to this. There has got to be a way to do this!!
read the file vmnetnat.conf
you need to adjust this section to your needs:
[incomingtcp] # Use these with care - anyone can enter into your virtual machine through these... # FTP (both active and passive FTP is always enabled) # ftp localhost 8887 #8887 = 192.168.27.128:21 # WEB (make sure that if you are using named webhosting, names point to # your host, not to guest... And if you are forwarding port other # than 80 make sure that your server copes with mismatched port # number in Host: header) # lynx http://localhost:8888 #8888 = 192.168.27.128:80 # SSH # ssh -p 8889 root@localhost #8889 = 192.168.27.128:22

I already looked at that. The connection is being made. I can access the VM via normal HTTP, I got it mapped from port 7000 outside to port 80 inside. I can also SSH to the machine inside. What I CAN'T do is use HTTPS to access the webserver inside via a secure connection. There is no documentation online on how to do this.
what about not using the Vmware NAT service and instead use the buildin Linux features ?
VMware NAT service is a very basic one ...
I would sniff the connection attempts with wireshark next - maybe then you see what is missing
