Are you on a PC if so you need to edit 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts' (just crack it open with notepad). You should see a line that reads:</p> <p><code>127.0.0.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; localhost</code>'</p> <p>After that just hit return and type:</p> <p><code>yourip&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; mattisreallycool.com</code>'</p> <p>Not sure about unix boxes, but if you are on a Mac, I can dig it out for you if need be.</p> Fri, 12 Jan 2007 20:54:48 +0000 andy206uk comment 1213462 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net
