Since we have a lot of domain problems (NS problems) I would like to access my domains for now thru my IP. f.e. http://1.1.1.1/mycomputerguide.net, but I don't know how to do configure this. My previous sysadmin has already made http://1.1.1.1/pma/ which is working and I don't even know where /pma/ is located. Can anyone help me out with this? God bless!
If you are on a linux platform then the URL would be http://youripaddress.com/~theusername/ Suppose mydomain.com is hosted with the user mydom on the IP 1.2.3.4 then the URL would be http://1.2.3.4/~mydom/
Thank you MayurGondaliya for your reply. I tried it with http://94.75.234.151/~mycomputerguide.net and http://94.75.234.151/~mycomputerguide but both give a 404 Any other suggestion?
Yes, we definitely need more info to help What kind of server do you use? Do you know what software is running on it? Giving us the real IP address might help also, if you are free to give it.
a few steps that might be helpful login - preferably SSH do in your shell 1. pwd ( gieves you working directory you are currently IN ) in many logical structures the next HIGHER folder may be your username, whatever your sysadmin has used for you. it is rarely the domain name incl .TLD but rather either a domain name if you are new cusotmer and no other similar domain on same HOSTING comapny or it may be a variation of domain name or it may be ANYthing else if you are an old customer with OTHER previous domains on same hoting 2. again use shell command: locate /pma/ gives you server path to your pma admin interface that path may be or NOT in your own public HTML doc space on same server 3. keep in mind that if your host uses mod_security2, then most likel IP access to your web space is disabled by default to avoid hacker access via IP 4. finally be aware that these very seconds your entire web space is most likely more or less open to hackers and you DEFINITELY have already hackers knocking at your door. all isntallation at this very moment usually is totally insecured / open. many passwords may either be default, empty or simple - thus prone to dictionary abuse 5. step 1 and 2 above should show you where on a server your own working space is. the public_html folder should be found from this point on. if domain access configuration same as for your pma folder then you should be able to get the logic behind 6. final point ask your hosting company - support they KNOW your answers because they have created the environment and/or any restrictions for IP access
