   Hi, I'm curious how to access website without domain ? Its very useful to test site before pointing DNS to new server.
   I can see its already a default vhost and directory called 'demodomain.com' but have no idea how to access it.

   Nginx 1.21.x

   MariaDB 10.x

   edit server's /etc/hosts and your local pc, windows hosts file i.e. C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts
   

   Code:

   ipaddress hostname.domain.com domain.com
   

   but be sure to comment out or remove entries after testing
