DNS setting for local web hosting?
Very easy method...
In your
C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc you will find a file named "hosts"
Put an entry in it like so:
192.168.1.20 www.example.com
Substitute the IP with the IP you want to mimic sending dns to www.exampel.com to.
That's all their is to it.
Your computer tries hosts file first. Please note, this will only work for the computer you are testing FROM. You can't use it to redirect websites on your webserver. It just saves you making changes to your DNS zone files for testing purposes.

The place where you registered your domain name will allow you to specify nameservers -- these name servers specify your DNS servers.
DNS setting for local web hosting?
The easiest way to do this on your local box is edit your HOSTS file (its different for each version of Windows so Yahoo! Search for the path to yours) and and an entry like this
127.0.0.1 www.yoursitehere.com
this will assign the loopback address 127.0.0.1 (your computer) to www.yoursitehere.com
