Windows hosts file equivalent on Mac?

10

I am doing a project and uploading to a clients test server, however they only have IP address to access and suggested editing my hosts file. I'm on a Mac, where is the hosts file?

I'm going to get very liberal with your question....

I'm assuming they want you to add an entry to the hosts file. You would find that in /private/etc/hosts on your Mac.
