I am trying to test my rails app from parallels but I am unable to
connect to it running in locomotive on the Mac. I am assuming that
whatever web server is running limits it to connections from
localhost. I know with webbrick, you pass a -b 0.0.0.0. I poked
around some to look at the startup scripts but didn't want to mess
things up. Any suggestions of what I should change to enable external
connections?

Thanks
Chris

bizarre ...

I have an acces via fusion (vmware) to my locomotive run application.

Locomotive doesn't limits from localhost, i've used it in production
with five computers in an intranet (not recommended though ;-) )

what kind of Ip do you give to your Win browser ?

I figured it out. It was the firewall settings on the mac that was
blocking the rails ports. Of course I figured it out as soon as I
sent the email :)

Thanks!
