On my machine it's in C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc. And talking of the hosts file. Does anyone have any ideas about setting up a hosts file like system for a LAN without running a DNS server?
I'd like a centralised way of defining IP/address mappings that's as simple as the hosts file. This will be for a handful of windows machines. Cheers.

I have five sites I am responsible for. I would like to be able to switch between them in as few steps as possible. Do I need to create a virtual directory for each one? How would I switch between sites for http://localhost/ shows the proper site? Or can I just change the mapping for / to the current site's folder? If so, where should I locate the folder for each site? Do I set up a different site in IIS for each site? If so, would I have to manually apply coldfusion to each site? > > I'm not really sure what I need to do so any help would be appreciated.
