Re: One web server, multiple domains; a slight twist

Assume a domain "zzz.com".
Current DNS record points to the server, say, 201.100.100.100
I sign up another ISP (call it new ISP) and create a domain name
"zzz.com" (a default index.html is usually created and placed in the
public folder). Assume that the server of the new ISP is
201.100.100.200.
When I type http://www.zzz.com in a browser, the traffic will go to
201.100.100.100.
Question:
Is it possible to navigate to the new ISP server by indicating the IP
201.100.100.200 ?
Something like "http://201.100.100.200/zzz.com/index.html" (please
forgive me I simply coin the http address).
Thanks.
A web server typically hosts multiple domains, eg "abcd.com",.
"123456.com" etc.
When I ping "abcd.com" or "123456.com", it returns a single IP
address.
What mechanism is used to identify which domain to serve ?
Thanks.
