[snip]anyone know if there's a Mac equivalent to the HOSTS file on a
PC?[/snip]

You can set up a simple text file with the format of
Domain.domain.com A 000.000.00.00
(The A is important)
Save the file with any name that makes sense to you.

In your TCP/IP control panel (I know it's there in version 2.7.7) is a
button that reads "select hosts file..."
Choose the simple text file you created and you're set.
