Use /etc/hosts to direct wildcard domain name

You need to set up a DNS server. (install dnsmasq (is light) or bind (is rather heavy)). To install...

Ubuntu OS:

sudo apt-get install dnsmasq

In /etc/NetworkManager/dnsmasq.d/dnsmasq-localhost.conf

and

address=/localhost.com/127.0.0.1

restart

sudo /etc/init.d/dnsmasq restart


with Mac OS:

Install dnsmasq

brew update # Always update Homebrew and the formulae first

brew install dnsmasq

sudo brew services start dnsmasq

sudo brew services start dnsmasq

Configure dnsmasq

Its default configuration file is located at /usr/local/etc/dnsmasq.conf and contains examples of its most prominent features. Open that file and add this line all the way at the bottom:

conf-dir=/usr/local/etc/dnsmasq.d,*.conf

This will instruct dnsmasq to include all files that end with .conf in the /usr/local/etc/dnsmasq.d directory as additional configuration files. This way we can keep our custom configuration better organised. Make sure the directory exists and create our first config file:

mkdir -p /usr/local/etc/dnsmasq.d touch

/usr/local/etc/dnsmasq.d/development.conf

and add this to conff

address=/localhost.com/127.0.0.1

restart

sudo brew services restart dnsmasq
