As a developer, I would like to maintain my current dev-environment, and simply use DrupalPro to serve up the dev-sites that I am working on. So it would be helpful if there was some documentation on how to accomplish this simply.

I eventually worked out that I could access the start page (/var/www/index.php) from the host using the 192.168.xx IP, which is available through the virtual network setup during install of VB/DrupalPro. So that's good, if not too pretty. But at least I can move stuff around on the guest OS now to make things available to me on the host browsers.

Ideally though, I'd like to somehow have a hostname setup during install that maps to that IP, so I can go to http://drupal-dev/example7.dev from my host OS, immediately upon install. That would be cool.

Take a look at #1735370: SSH/SFTP in to DrupalPro from host -- you might be able to achieve this with the steps Mike Stewart demonstrates there. (Or at least it seems like those steps are probably a prerequisite.)

If you do figure this out, please report back so we can include documentation on how to do this -- I'm sure others want to know as well.

Hi @achton, I agree with your goals, and makes sense. however, I'm not planning on making any more major changes before the first release. I'm shooting for early next week.

and then,,, I plan on throwing everything out,,, and working towards: #1783258: Start porting to Vagrant

which should really allow for a much more flexible setup -- including goals such as this.

Is there any documentation now available on this? The last comment was 2 years ago...
