[wp-hackers] Keep local DB in sync with remote DB

[Alex Hempton-Smith]

Would I be able to define the wordpress URL and the blog URL from inside the
wp-config.php.
I want an if statement that could recognize I'm accessing the site from
localhost, and then define those URLs as 'localhost', at the moment I can't
login because WP is obviously sending me to the URLs from inside the DB,
mydomain.com instead of localhost.
