[GREAT TIP!] Point your pc to another server

Maybe a lot of you know this already, but Im using this more n more and its handy

Say you want to move a domain to a different host or set up a backup and you cannot do a http://hostname/tempdomainname then here you go :

1. look up the HOSTS file in XP : C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC

2. add the IP followed with a space followed with the domainname

sample : 11.22.33.555 www.mymaryanne.com

3. reboot

Make sure its www.domain.com or domain.com and type the domain like THAT in IE or FF. After youre done just del the entry and reboot.
