Run Notepad.exe as Administrator Open C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts (no file extension) Add "127.0.0.1 www.mydomain.com" to the last line Open web server and configure to route by hostname "www.mydomain.com" Windows (by default) looks to your hosts file for name resolution before checking a DNS server.
