    Hello,

    First, sorry for my english. I a new user of a dedicated server, and choosed ISPConfig + Debian 6.

    I'd like to know how to access to a new website without using DNS, but only the ip of the server + directories where my site is stored.

    Example :
    xx.xx.xx.xx/mysitedirectory/web in my browser address,
    or xx.xx.xx.xx/~mysitedirectory

    Thank you for your help.

    Regards,
    Olivier

    Thank you for your answer Till,

    Well, i just create a new site "test.com"

    Then, added the line
    Code:
    xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx   test.com
    to my hosts file (personnal machine running with win XP

    But when i try to go on test.com with my browser, i see the real test.com website, not my test site.

    Is there anything else to do?

    Thank you

    No, thats all. I use this on my Windows 7 Workstation to access sites before they golive and I know it works on Windows and Mac as well. Are you sure that you entered test.com in the browser and not e.g. www.test.com and that you dont have a typo somewhere?

    Till,

    It works fine, the problem was from my connection. I was trying from my office, with a proxy.

    From my personnal connection, it works ;)

    Thank you very much for your quick answers :)
