Accessing webspace without Domain
-
Hello :) Try updating the hosts file on your computer so that it points the domain name to the IP address of the new server. This will allow you to visit the domain name directly in your web browser before propagation occurs.

Hello, that didn't help, as well I cannot see how the hosts file helps. The new server has a different IP. So it should show the account like //serverIP/~(accountname)/ Thanks 0 -

Could you clarify exactly what you did when modifying the hosts file on your own computer? Thank you.0
