I'm currently looking to run this server on my Windows machine through WSL and I'm getting my behind kicked thoroughly. I'm very untrained in all things linux/ubuntu/whatever distro you want and I try not to mess with network stuff if I can help it usually - sadly, this project requires a HEAVY hand in both.
My gear in the retro side:
Mac Plus with BlueSCSI v2 w/ pico W, booting with 7.5.3 and can MacTCP ping local addresses on my LAN, I can run Mac2.0c and it shows a connection to my wifi
Mac SE/30 with BlueSCSI v2 w/ pico W, booting with 7.5.3 and can MacTCP ping local addresses on my LAN, connect to a hosted ftp on my modern PC, or connect to a local http python server hosted on my modern PC as well. It shows a connection to my wifi.
My gear on the modern side:
Windows 11 i5-13600KF PC, with WSL installed, with Ubuntu, updated.
I copied a new config.py from config.py.example and uncommented a bunch of stuff I wanted to try out.
I used this trail of commands inside WSL:
Code:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python3-virtualenv
sudo apt install python3-venv
./start_macproxy.sh --port=5001
I went to the proxy part of a mac browser and tried a bunch of stuff for the address:
http://192.168.0.18:5001 (local IP for my windows 11 PC)
http://172.xxx.xxx.xxx:5001 (address stated by the mac_proxy script as it launches)
http://172.xxx.xxx.xxx:5001 (DIFFERENT address I get if I run this
Code:
ip route show | grep -i default | awk '{ print $3}'
I can't establish a connection to the proxy
I can't continue further on my own, really need a willing guru to help me. I can't decipher this page (apparently as I learned) enough to get to the finish line.

The Venn diagram section of linux gurus and windows WSL gurus is really, really thin. Let me know if you are in it!
edit - with the help of polpo, ian scott and gutbomb, I ditched WSL and just went straight to python
Code:
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
python3 proxy.py --port 5001
