How to change?

[farmdve]

How to change the name u input in browser "localhost" to something else?
Or it is not possible?

[sari42]

change
127.0.0.1 localhost
to
127.0.0.1 localhost myserver1 myserver2 #and what not
in your ...sytem32/drivers/etc/hosts file.

(host corrected to hosts, thx cannon)

sari42's suggestion works on any PC on which the "hosts" (note that it's hosts, not host) file is amended. It can be very useful for development work and in-house testing. My hosts file tells a story!

For a more flexible/dynamic solution, look at virtual hosting. Search this forum for that and/or "vhost" and you'll find a wealth of information.
