Hi,

I am running a webserver at localhost:8080 on my sierra mac and cannot connect from my win 81 guest OS :-(
My guest OS is in 'shared network" modus. I try to access it using the ip:8080 that i found in host OS under network > "Parallels Shared #0 is currently active and has the IP address xx.xx.xx.xx"

no dice :-(

ps: i already disabled both firewalls.
Can anyone help me please ?

kind regards, Tom
 
Did you figure this out? Im wondering this same thing and all the threads I'm finding in regards to this issue are unanswered. Parallels - seriously? This is an extremely common use case and theres no docs or support at all on accomplishing this. VirtualBox is far better - all i have to do is add an entry for the default gateway in the hosts file and it works - no additional configuration required. And its a free software! This seems totally wild to me.
