In the file $AIPS_ROOT/HOSTS.LIST add a line :

+  LOCALHOST  MACINT    BUSGJ        NONE   My laptop

Then in the file $AIPS_ROOT/DA00/DADEVS.LIST you will need to add data 
area(s) that point at LOCALHOST.  I don't know what you set up for data 
areas but if I assume that you did

$AIPS_ROOT/DATA/SVETLANA-JORSTADS-MACBOOK_1/

as your data area, then I would copy the lines with the old name and 
change the name to LOCALHOST.  Then in the DATA area $AIPS_ROOT/DATA
I would do

ln -s SVETLANA-JORSTADS-MACBOOK_1  LOCALHOST_1

If you put the data areas somewhere else, then you will need to 
translate the above appropriately.

Let me know how it works.
