Hey Guys,

I am at my wits end over this issue.

I have a rails app up and running using WEBrick on localhost:3000 from
my mac, everything is fine.

I would like to test my app in IE, so i am running parallels.  To access
localhost from IE on the virtual machine, i use MYCOMPUTERNAME.local in
the address bar of IE.  This serves up the "it works!" page no problem.
However, when i specify port 3000, i keep getting "internet explorer
cannot display webpage".

MYCOMPUTERNAME.local:3000

I have also tried using the information i get from the command window on
my virtual machine after doing ipconfig.

IPv4 address - 10.211.55.3
Default gateway - 10.211.55.1

If i use 10.211.55.2 i get the "it works!" page, if i add :3000 i get
nothing.

This is driving me crazy, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Bobby
