Hi Max,

There is a /etc/hosts file on the Mac, which follows the standard unix
convention for its location.  It's a hidden file, which means that
your system won't show you this in Finder unless you actually know
where the location is, or else if you issue commands to turn hiding
off. You probably don't want to edit this directly, although it's
possible to do in Terminal.  You can add servers that you want to
connect to from Finder with the Command-K "Connect to Server"
shortcut.  I think there's also a free app named "hosts" at MacUpdate
that will set up a system preference pane for configuring your host
file in a clean way. If you describe what you want to do, maybe Tim or
another user can make suggestions.

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther
