I am using domain aliases on a Linux machine for development. Is there a way to specify all machines on a LAN can find such a domain?

I can find sites from my Windows PC by entering the Linux machine's IP address in the address bar of My browser. But aliases provide a better way of defining the top level root directory of a site to more closely mimic the site as deployed on a production server.

I would like to be able to enter a uri in a browser on either my Windows or Linux machine and have it open the site defined/hosted on the Linux machine.

Thanks for reading this and have a great day.
