Hello Experts
This is a very easy one.
Can someone please show me how to change the ip address of the 'localhost' on my pc.
I believe there is somekind of 'host' or 'winhost' file that I need to change.
At the moment if I ping localhost it comes up with 127.0.0.1, which we all know is the loopback address. I want to change it to specific ip address.
Cheers
Carlton
