I need to configure the loopback configuration for the standalone network.
I configure the 172.0.0.1 IP for loopback but it seems dont work.

How can I configure a shared folder and mount it in the loopback configuration?

Can I have the httpd to have a web server with loopback?
I mean access the web in my own machine.
Thanks!

Probably a typo error. The loopback is
127.0.0.1 NOT 172.0.0.1
