title: How do I modify the host file on a Genymotion VM from windows?
body: <p>I'm basically trying to simplify my development workflow a bit. I have a azure mobile services project running inside IIS on my windows host machine, which I can connect to from the Genymotion Android VM using an IP address (10.71.34.1).</p>
  
  <p>What I'd like to be able to do is connect to the mobile services website using a host header (e.g. <a href="http://devmobservices" rel="noreferrer">http://devmobservices</a> rather than <a href="http://10.71.34.1:12345" rel="noreferrer">http://10.71.34.1:12345</a>).</p>
  
  <p>How can I modify the host file opn the Genymotion VM to allow me to do this?</p>
  
  <p>(Also, if there's a better solution then please point me at that!)</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
