Preview Website problem

I'm currently running CentOS 5 on a VM using Alfresco Community edition 2.1 with WCM. OS is command line only, so accessing Alfresco from personal PC, so using IP instead of localhost. Server running on Tomcat.

Managed to get everything set up okay and able to create web projects. However when I attempt to preview the site it uses some strange web address which refuses to connect.

Sample URL that is uses is:
http://localhost.www--sandbox.127-0-0-1.ip.alfrescodemo.net:8180/

Any ideas anyone? I'm probably missing something very obvious.

You need a second special tomcat instance running known as the "virtualization server".
