    I have a website running on my Ubuntu guest OS via Parallels. I can use the ifconfig command to get the URL for the Ubuntu web-server and load it up from any of my browsers in OS X.

    But how do I then make that ip address / web address available to other devices in my home network? I assume it can be done via the network preferences > Port Forwarding. Can someone provide some guidance about how to make this happen?

    Hi, it is needed to specify port 80 as both incoming port and destination. IP must be the IP of the VM to redirect the incoming connection request to (10.211.55.x)
