Full Version: Server IP resolves to default Apache Page

OK what do I do to get the address http://###.##.###.### for my server IP to resolve to something other than the default Apache page?
MrLister
click on edit a dns zone and change it to the right ip
DavidB
What IP would be the right IP? For example if 222.33.44.111 were my servers IP such that https://222.33.44.111:2057 calls up WHM, I want something other than that default Apache page to display if somone goes to http://222.33.44.111 which is what happens now. I dont understand what to change.

On my server the document root is set to:

/usr/local/apache/htdocs

So, that is the index page. Chage the pages to whatever you want the page to look like.

Thank you. Issue resolved!

should this be your home page? i tried to ftp my home page but it goes to the /home/admin directory and doesn't change this page.
DavidB
I put an 'blank' index.html page in that directory (the one Got-Hosting soke of). This index page had a META redirect in the HEAD section and an OnLoad redirect in the BODY tag. Both redirects send the user to my real site. Depending on the browser one of the two should be recognized.
