<p>I've just created a new Windows XP VM on my Mac using VMware Fusion. The VM is using NAT to share the host's internet connection.</p>

<p>How do I access a Rails application, which is accessible on the Mac itself using <code>http://localhost:3000</code>?</p>

On the XP machine, find your IP address by going to the command prompt and typing
```
ipconfig
```
. Try replacing the last number with 1 or 2. For example, if your IP address is 192.168.78.128, use
http://192.168.78.1:3000
.
