How to create a private domain name?

In order to debug some functionality of a website project I would like to know if it's possible on my local host to access my http://127.0.0.1/projectName/test1/public folder with a custom domain name and create other subdomain?

I'm working with easyPHP on Windows7.

Solution

  • HOSTS File: In Notepad (as Administrator) open the file:

    C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts

    To make foo.bar.com resolve to 127.0.0.1 simply add the line

    127.0.0.1       foo.bar.com

    You can add as many as you like.
