I do a lot of work with subdomains, managing them locally on my development and test machines has always been a bit of a pain. Going way back, I can remember manually editing the hosts file in system32\drivers\etc\ on Windows! On the Unix we have /etc/hosts. Unfortunately /etc/hosts doesn’t allow wildcard definitions for subdomains, so you have to manually specify each one.

In a previous article, I talked about using subdomains in Rails 3. Since then, many people have elaborated on the topic. There's even been a great Railscast. I've found Tim Pope's post particularly useful. Basically, he has set up a domain name that resolves to locahost/127.0.0.1. This save you from having to specify subdomains in you /etc/hosts file - which is a hassle! I'd like to offer another alternative using Dnsmasq. With Dnsmasq, you can set up a simple DNS server locally, then you can use an apache virtual host to deal with wildcard domains.

I want to setup my local development machine so that any requests for *.local are redirected to localhost. The idea is that as I develop multiple sites, I can just add vhosts to Apache called site1.local, site2.local etc, and have them all resolve to localhost, while Apache serves a different site accordingly.
