SysMate - Hosts File Walker is an approachable and portable software application that facilitates a user-friendly working environment for helping you manage the Hosts file. You don't need to care about the hosts file. SysMate - Host File Walker has been designed to cater for the hosts's file structure, entry insertion and DNS to IP conversion. So you don't need to know the IP of either the DNS you are diverting from or the one you are porting to. SHFW automatically resolves the IP, detects for conflict within the hosts file and warns you to make changes.
The GUI is represented by a normal window with a plain and simple structure that contains an example on how the Hosts file should look like.
You can add as many new hosts to the file as you want by specifying the IP address and site (DNS), delete the Hosts file or restore its settings to default, restore the last modified Hosts, as well as back up and restore data. There are no other notable options available here.
