@jbarone ... when i logged in to the box
ifconfig ,,, only NAT adapter is working fine but not Hostonly

have you blog post about this lab somewhere ?

I'm actually seeing this as well on my setup. I'm looking into it now. I think something might have changed with the Trusty64 box that this is based on. I may need to change some more setup, but I'll get you working.

This lab was actually created for a talk that I gave at a local security meetup (NolaSec). So I don't have a blog post about the lab specifically, but I do have post about the content of the talk http://caveconfessions.com/xxe-ugly-side-of-xml/

@AliBawazeEer I've looked into this some more. I found that it worked right away on Mac and Linux, so that narrowed it down to a Windows issue. I found that using Edge seems to be the issue. For some reason it doesn't bother making any requests for local ips. If you use Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, etc.. it works. Also if you use a proxy (ZAP, Burp) then Edge will make the connection.

I'm going to close this issue based on this research. If you are still having problems, please leave a comment, and let me know what you are seeing. Thanks.

@jbarone thanks a zillion for taking the time to investigate this with me ,
i was able to tackle the issue , which is related to windows encoding within vagrant environment . as i believe nothing wrong in your vagrant , the issue in my windows encoding
how i resolve it , good to post it might be helpful for other too
in a nutshell , all you need to do is to run the following command

C:> chcp 1252

---

i also , have reinstalled latest versions of both virtual box and vagrant and now works perfect . .

p:s can we discuss more on the lab offline , i would really appreciate it
thanx

@AliBawazeEer Glad to hear it's working for you.

I will try to put together a video walk through of the lab. That should at least get you up and running with it. You can also feel free to find me on twitter (@tygarsai) and I will be happy to answer any question you have about the lab.
