How to setup your VMWare Fusion to use static IP addresses on Mac OSX

1. Set a Static IP for your virtual machine system.

sudo vim /Library/Preferences/VMware\ Fusion/vmnet8/dhcpd.conf

After where it says End of “DO NOT MODIFY SECTION” enter the following lines:

host Windows8x64 {
    hardware ethernet 00:0C:29:B6:22:3E;
    fixed-address 172.16.106.128;
}

2. Change NAT configure file.

sudo vi /Library/Preferences/VMware\ Fusion/vmnet8/nat.conf

Add your configure, for example:

[incomingtcp]
# Use these with care — anyone can enter into your VM through these…
# The format and example are as follows:
#8080 = 172.16.3.128:80
80 = 172.16.106.128:80

3. Restart network service of VMware Fusion.

sudo /Applications/VMware\ Fusion.app/Contents/Library/vmnet-cli --stop
sudo /Applications/VMware\ Fusion.app/Contents/Library/vmnet-cli --start

Nginx - Reverse Proxy

Proxy server

server {
    listen       80;
    server_name  proxy.com;

    location / {
        auth_basic "Restricted Content";
        auth_basic_user_file /etc/nginx/.htpasswd;
        proxy_pass https://destination.com;
    }
}

Load balancing

http {
    upstream myapp1 {
        server srv1.example.com;
        server srv2.example.com;
        server srv3.example.com;
    }

    server {
        listen 80;

        location / {
            proxy_pass http://myapp1;
        }
    }
}

Sniffer Package on MacOS

sniff package

$ sudo tcpdump -i en0 -s 0 -B 524288 -w ~/Desktop/local.pcap

parse package

$ tcpdump -s 0 -n -e -XX -vvv -r ~/Desktop/local.pcap

GIT create new branch

If you like the method in the link you've posted, have a look at Git Flow.

It's a set of scripts he created for that workflow.

But to answer your question:

$ git checkout -b myFeature dev

Creates MyFeature branch off dev. Do your work and then

$ git commit -am "Your message"

Now merge your changes to dev without a fast-forward

$ git checkout dev
$ git merge --no-ff myFeature

Now push changes to the server

$ git push origin dev
$ git push origin myFeature

SSH

$ ssh-keygen -t rsa -C "your_email@example.com"

# Creates a new ssh key, using the provided email as a label
# Generating public/private rsa key pair.
Enter file in which to save the key (/home/you/.ssh/id_rsa):
Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase): [Type a passphrase]
Enter same passphrase again: [Type passphrase again]

Embedding password into key file

$ openssl rsa < id_rsa > id_rsa_withpass
Enter pass phrase:************
