Under Windows the hosts file is in... Let me see...
C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc
I do not use Windows OS for some 10 years now, so I may not be of
further help.
Check you Firewall settings. Typically you will need to add an
exempt (or port allowances) for the javaw.exe and java.exe to allow
Java programs to bind to local ports, but that's just me speaking from
vague memory.
I am not sure whether Glassfish requires Administrator privileges to
run, but that is one possible reason for the 'Permission Denied'.
DO NOT! Under *ANY* circumstances make a mapping for the 0.0.0.0!
The 0.0.0.0 should not be named, and it is a network, not a host.
I hope somebody with more intimate Windows knowledge jumps in to help.
