I have 3 domains for one user eg.

abc.com
def.com
ghi.com

when we try to access temporary domain by going to eg.
http://192.168.1.1/~rashid it goes to the first created domain (eg. abc.com).

Question is how to access other 2 domains via browser while the domain is under propagation process.

Any help would be highly appreciated. Thanks, Rashid
 
They're all under the same username; so DA is set to use the first created domain as the default domain unless you change it.

You can change it in your control panel:

Go to the main user control panel, click on Domain Setup, and choose a domain to make the default domain. The default domain is the one that will show up.

Unfortunately you can only see one at a time.

Alternatively you can create a DNS A record for new.example.com in the zone file on both servers, and an aliased domain name using Domain Pointers on the new server, and use new.example.com to look at the domain. You can do this for each domain.

We generally do it this way, since php code and sometimes perl code, and even some poorly coded html, won't work properly otherwise.

(Of course some won't work even this way :( .)

If you have some other domain with wildcard subdomains (i.e., *.example.com) resolving to the same IP address as these 3 domains, you can create a custom Apache setting for these 3 domains using ServerAlias Apache directive.

Just an idea.
