Access website without Domain (Plesk Panel) - cpanel

In Cpanel i can access a website without domain using http://IP/~username. Is there any similar way to access a website without domain which is hosted in Windows & Running with Plesk panel.?

most hosting provider set temporary url based on the server ip address and customized domain name
https://www.motherhost.com/help/temporary-url-for-the-domain-in-plesk-control-panel/
Any domain or server name followed by /~cpanelusername/ can be used to see that user's site. This will cause any domain on the server to show the site for the username. That's how cPanel setup works; so we can't prevent this method from showing someone else's site on your domain.
Hosting with Plesk 11
http://domainname.com.ipaddress.windowshostingdns.com/
(Be sure to replace all of the above with the actual values and to have the dashes between the IP octets instead of dots.)
The IP address can be either the IP for the A record or the control panel, based on which one is actively pointing to the site as A records can direct a domain name to point to a different server.
The best way to find the temporary URL from your Plesk control panel is to do the following:
Click on the Web Sites and Domains tab.
Click on the Domain Name for the hosting settings.
In the hosting settings, look for the preview link. This will provide the proper temporary URL.
Hosting with Plesk 10
(Be sure to replace "serverIP", "cpanelusername" and "path_aka_document_root" with the actual values.)
Hosting with Plesk 11
(Be sure to replace all of the above with the actual values and to have the dashes between the IP octets instead of dots.)
Hosting with Plesk 10
(Be sure to replace "serverIP" and "otherdomain.com" with the actual values.)
Hosting with Plesk 8 and 9
(Replace "ipaddress" with your server's IP address.)

You may configure fake domain name , reconfigure HOST file in your PC and access to the site .
In HOST file put the fake domain + IP of the server , do an F5 and with that fake domain you may be able to access to it .

in Plesk you unable to access website without domain.
But you can access live websites content via IP But need upload websites content in domain.

Yes,
You can access your plesk panel without domain.
You need to known you ip address.
You can access pleak panel using ip with port.
Http://ip:8443

DNS: Do i need to create a DNS entry to represent each of my web applications running in a same windows server under IIS?

Updated the question:
Assume that i run several web applications in one windows server under IIS. As you know, for the several web applications to co-exist in IIS, i need to differentiate them using a hostname, ip address or port combinations. Assuming that i go with defining a hostname binding unique for each of the web applications, do i need to create a DNS entry for the hostnames to be resolved?
There are three different sites i host in IIS in the same windows server. I can not allocate different ip address to each of my dev sites so i chose to use unique host names for each of the sites thus
api-orders.dev
api-catalog.dev
api-products.dev
etc..
api - indicates it is a web api.
orders | catalog | products - indicate it is an application serving a business department.
dev - indicates it is my development site.
My organization has several domains such as usdev.org.com, us.org.com, uk.dtt.org.com and more like.
Assuming that my Dev servers are hosted in the usdev.org.com domain. I should be able to request my hypothetical sites from within and also outside of the usdev.org.com domain
right now, when i use the below urls, i am not able to hit the site within or outside the domain. Not even from the web server where the sites are hosted. I ask this question to several people and could not get a clear response.
DO i need to create DNS entries corresponding to the hostname IIS binding of each site in order to solve this issue?
api-orders.dev.computer-name.domain.com
api-catalog.dev.computer-name.domain.com
api-products.dev.computer-name.domain.com
What kind of setup i need to acheive this?
If you just want to access the website via your Active directory. I think you shouldn't include servername in your domain name.
Because in common AD DNS Forward Lookup Zone.
You should have a primary zone called domain.com. Your web server will displayed as a HOST(A) Servername and its FQDN will be servername.domain.com.
Then you could create a CNAME api-orders.dev and map it to your servername.domain.com. The FQDN should be api-orders.dev.domain.com.
Finally you have to set the domain into IIS binding so that IIS can share 80 port for mutiple sites.
Since your cname api-orders.dev will not be considered as a seperate website, you have to input FQDN instead of CNAME.
If you want to access the website from internet, then you may need to purchase public domain from domain provider and map it to your server's public IP address.

glassfish server If you access the IP address directly, you do not know how to redirect it to the domain

The application is running on the Payara server.
On the Grassfish server administrator screen, the domain is set to.
It can be accessed by the domain without any problem.
I have a question.
If you access the application from its IP address, you can connect without problems.
If you access the IP address directly, you do not know how to redirect it to the domain.
Could you help me?
You have to create an type A record DNS record which points your domain to your server's ip address.
You can change the records usually in some kind of admin gui at the provider where you registered the domain.

IIS web site with host name can't be accessed by IP address

I have mvc 4 web api project set up on IIS giving host name as my computer name. When I call it by mycoumputername:portno, I can access my web api. But when I call it by myIPaddress:portno, I couldn't access it. But when I create new Site without giving host name as computer name, default as localhost, it can be access by IPaddress:portno. I can't find the reason. Anyway, I need to define hostname as my computer name to access from remote computers by www.mycomputername.com and also need to use IPAddress:portno for accessing from mobile.
Please help me, anyone. Thank you and appreciate your help.
The reason is the host name setting.
When you set a host name in IIS site binding you explicitly requires all requests to this site to contain the desired host header (read HTTP protocol for details).
When your browser accesses the site using the IP address, the requests won't contain the header to match your IIS side setting.
That's simply by design.
You just need to create a new binding in IIS for the domain without a host name and with the port number.

How to set a custom website name instead of ip address for local computer?

I can point a url to a directory in my computer by setting /etc/host and /private/etc/apache2/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf files. For instance, when i type sample-app.com in my computer, website under /Users/azad/works/sample-app.com folder is running.
When someone type sample-app.com in another computer in same local network i want to display the same website located on my computer. Is this possible?
By the way, i don't have access to any computer in the local network and i can't do any configuration.
Mac 10.7.5 (I am using mac but if windows is better for this purpose i can use windows too),
PHP 5.3,
Apache 2.2
If you want to accomplish this on windows, use the hosts file on the computers you want to point at that sample-app.com URL mapping your IP address to that URL in all the computers you want that to work on. Then make sure your HTTP server is configured to serve that website under that host name for port 80.
Since you aren't able to configure the local network, the best way to handle this situation is to configure a host name with the website domain's DNS server, such as dev.sample-app.com, which points to the local IP address (seeing as how its on the local network) of the computer hosting the website. This will then allow other computers on the local network to enter this host name to access the webiste.
If you had control of the local network's DNS server or control of the proxy (if they have a proxy), there would, of course, be other options.
Update:
Since you mentioned in your comment that you have control over the DNS server, here is how you could accomplish your goal via the DNS server. First, add a forward lookup zone for sample-app.com to the DNS server. Second, configure the default host for the zone to point to the computer serving up the website content. Now the client computers will resolve the local IP when the user enters sample-app.com into their web browsers. If you need to continue to have access to other hosts on sample-app.com, you might want to try asking about it on serverfault.

Using domain database in subdomain

Is it possible that we have one domain where database and site is hosted on the single dedicated IP.
If we wish to host domains subdomain on another dedicated IP address and use the domains databse to display quotes.
Will it be done or not. Or we have to host the subdomain also in same domain with same IP address?
Yes, you can host a site and a database on the same domain name and the same IP. If they are separate servers, you need a router so that it can route different ports to separate local IP addresses.
Yes, you can have a subdomain on a different IP, and you can access the database either from the outside (public / separate local net) or from the same local net. You can have a separate IP for the subcomain even if you use the same router and put the server in the same local net.
Yes. surely different domains/subdomains can be assigned to different servers/IPs and surely you can access a database remotely from a separate machine. Your primary site and the one that your subdomain refers to can be served by a single database residing on the primary site's machine.
