Emulator Connection to Local WebService

Hello,

I currently have a smartphone project that uses 2 different web services.
One that is contained on a seperate machine and another that is local (i.e.
localhost). The webservice on the local machine is the problem. I would put
the WebService on the non-local machine, but it's easier for debugging
purposes to have it on the local machine.

Anyways, the local WebService is added easily enough as a Web Referrence to
Visual Studios, but the emulator (Windows Mobile 5.0 emulator) cannot connect
to it.

Do I need to install the Windows Loopback Network Adapter or what?

Any help is greatly appreciated,

-Ivan
 
"localhost" means "on this device" so that would mean the web service is
actually running *on the smartphone itself (the emulator is a separate
device)* which I seriously doubt is the case. Use the host PC's name or IP
address.
