Does anyone know how to create a fake host name using XAMPP? Usually the site is defined as http://localhost/mydomain/  but I need to do something like this: localhost.mydomain.edu

I am trying to find the file to modify in my XAMPP set up.

    This thread seemed at little confusing as there were errors. I was hoping to find a straightforward solution where nothing was in doubt.

    You know what to search for now - Virtual Host - so finding a straightforward solution should not be difficult if you search Google for relevant terms, right?
