Hi All,

I have shared webspace managed by DirectAdmin Control panel.
I have added four domain name and uploaded files to corresponding domain folder. Each of domain name configuration is done in Domain management to point to this web space providing computer, and all working fine.

My question is that now I have added a dummy domain name like-> mytestdomainname.com and uploaded some files (php and html)
How can I run and test them. By the way mytestdomainname.com is not registered it is just dummy (virtual).

How can I access this site... what is compelete URL to access these pages.
 
In case you're a Windows user:

Edit c:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts and add something like this:
Code: 
10.10.10.10 mytestdomainname.com
10.10.10.10 www.mytestdomainname.com

Make sure to set the proper IP-address.
