Hi,

I have a application for our internal office use. Platform is Ubuntu  
9.04 sever edition. with Ruby version 1.8.7 (i486-linux)  
RubyGems version 1.3.7  
Rack version 1.0  
Rails version 2.3.5  
Active Record version 2.3.5  
Active Resource version 2.3.5  
Action Mailer version 2.3.5  
Active Support version 2.3.5  
Application root /home/infinity1/OBS  
Environment development  
Database adapter mysql  
Database schema version 0

Now suppose my IP(local) number is 192.168.0.3. how can I create a  
virtual name for the application ? so that I can use [www.example.com](http://www.example.com)  
rather [http://192.168.03:3000/login\_c](http://192.168.03:3000/login_c).

Please help me regarding this. Thanks in advance.
