CF11 Host file question

Hi

I installed Coldfusion 11 and have created several different CF instances using the Instance Manager. Each instance is available on a different port, so for example http://127.0.0.1:8504/ is a different site than http://127.0.0.1:8502/

What I'd like to do is edit the host file on my Mac (Mavericks) to get http://127.0.0.1:8504/ to resolve to "site4", as an example.

When I edit my host file I typed "127.0.0.1:8504       site4"

But it doesn't seem to work. I'm guessing it has something to do with the port number being present in the url?  Yes, I saved the host file and even flushed the DNS but I can't seem to get site4 to resolve to 127.0.0.1:8504....

Any ideas?

Many thanks,

Rich
