I am looking for a way to redirect all http requests coming from users that are connected to my macbook pro via internet sharing to my locally hosted web site.
Scenario; Uni exhibition where a web based application will be on display. Visitors with there own laptop should be able to connect to the access point with ssid "My exhibition" and when opening a browser regardless of their home page instantly be taken to the site hosted on my local apache server.
Presumably when a user connects to my internet sharing access point my laptop becomes a dns server for that connection and the default gateway. Is there a way of adding dns entries so that i can point all requests to http://mycomputername/mysite
I tried using the hosts file but you aren't able to use wildcards :-(
Any thoughts?
