Previewing a new site

If your site is new, the DNS information for the domain may not have had time to resolve; however, you can still preview the Web page content and CGI script functions of the domain.

• Note: Once the DNS information for your new domain resolves, you can go directly to the actual domain by entering the following URL in the Address field of your Internet browser: http://<domain_name>.com/

Previewing Web page content

To preview Web page content:

In the Address field of your Internet browser, enter the following URL:

http://<WEBppliance server name>/<domain_name>

where:

• WEBppliance server name is the name of the server on which the domain is hosted, for example myserver.com.

• domain_name is the name of the newly created domain, for example mydomain.com.

To preview the domain in the above example, you would type the following URL in the address of your Web browser

http://myserver.com/mydomain.com

Previewing CGI scripts

To preview the CGI scripts:

In the Address field of your Internet browser, enter the following URL:

http://<WEBppliance server name>/<ScriptAlias>

where:

• WEBppliance server name is the name of the server on which the domain is hosted, for example myserver.com.

• ScriptAlias is the CGI script directory for the domain.
