Serve local web pages via name not IP number

I hope the above is clear and easy to follow--I've tested it on two different Macs here, and it works as described. If you have any troubles getting it working, however, please post a question and I'll do my best to answer it. Remember that this hint is for internally-hosted sites only, and it doesn't do anything about providing access for users outside your local network.
