How do I access the host machine from the guest machine?
I've just created a new Windows XP VM on my Mac using VMware Fusion. The VM is using NAT to share the host's internet connection.
How do I access a Rails application, which is accessible on the Mac itself using http://localhost:3000?
Answer
On the XP machine, find your IP address by going to the command prompt and typing ipconfig. Try replacing the last number with 1 or 2. For example, if your IP address is 192.168.78.128, use http://192.168.78.1:3000.
