Goal I'm trying to access my Apache server from localhost without actually using localhost, but instead with the domain www.mydomain.com that it's hosting.

Problem Webbrowser indcates ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT, C# app gives me System.Net.WebException: The remote name could not be resolved:.

Important note I can access the website from any other computer, both internally on the network and externally from other computers on the internet via domain.

Reason I need this My server software that is developed in C# needs to do webrequests to the website (even though it's hosted locally). When making webrequests I get errors about the certificate due to the domain mismatch.
