Brett,

Why not use the hosts file? It is located here...

C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

And it would look like this.

127.0.0.1 localhost

192.168.11.11 dbserver1
192.168.11.12 dbserver2

192.168.11.21 webserver1
192.168.11.22 webserver2


You have all different names so I'm not sure how that helps.

Do you mean I get use this on each different machine:

machine1
192.168.11.21 mydomain

machine2
192.168.11.22 mydomain

machine3
192.168.11.23 mydomain

and in the code just use "mydomain" instead of localhost or an IP?

Thanks,
Brett
