Changing Windows 'hosts' file in guest OS under Parallels Desktop 6 on Mac
- by ling
I am running Win7 in a Parallels Desktop 6 on Mac.
On the mac, I use /etc/hosts :
127.0.0.1 mysite
and it works fine : I can type mysite in the url and the website will display.
What I want to do is be able to reproduce the same on Win7 with IE8 for example.
Another guy did it successfully here but I can't :
Parallels: How to see a Mac-hosted website from Windows?
On Mac :
ifconfig -a
vnic0 10.211.55.2
on Win7
I tried this
C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts
10.211.55.2 mysite
What am I missing ?
