How do other people handle the situation where you want to let a client check their website before delegating their domain name to your name server? I think it's too much to ask clients to modify a hosts file on their PC, and I don't want to use the mod_userdir method, as it's considered a security vulnerability.
For sites on our old cPanel server, I used the hosts.cx service, which generates a testing URL to share with the client… and for the most part that worked well. But for some reason, it's not working on the new DirectAdmin server. The hosts.cx URL just returns a white page with 'Apache is functioning normally' in the top corner.
