This plugin adds an entry to your /etc/hosts file on the host system.
On up, resume and reload commands, it tries to add the information, if its not already existant in your hosts file. If it needs to be added, you will be asked for an administrator password, since it uses sudo to edit the file.
On halt and destroy, those entries will be removed again. By setting the remove_on_suspend option, you can have them removed on suspend, too:
config.hostsupdater.remove_on_suspend = true
$ vagrant plugin install vagrant-hostsupdater
Uninstall it with:
$ vagrant plugin uninstall vagrant-hostsupdater
At the moment, the only things you need, are the hostname and a :private_network network with a fixed ip.
config.vm.network :private_network, ip: "192.168.3.10"
config.vm.hostname = "www.testing.de"
config.hostsupdater.aliases = ["alias.testing.de", "alias2.somedomain.com"]
This ip and the hostname will be used for the entry in the /etc/hosts file.
