Access Ubuntu Server by host name
How can I configure Ubuntu server to report its hostname in such a way that typing http://thehostname/ in a web browser will connect to apache running on my Windows machine.
This question is not about configuring apache, but more specifically getting myhostname to resolve to the machine's IP address from a computer running Windows.
Extra information: I am running Ubuntu Server 10.04.1 32bit with minimal changes from default. The most notable change is enabling ufw.
