Using Host Header in curl

When you have multiple web site hosted on a server, if you want to access one of the site using curl to IP of the server, then you need to pass Host header value.

For example

curl --header "Host: www.mydomain.com" SERVER_IP_HERE

If you want to show debug info, add –verbose

curl --verbose --header "Host: www.mydomain.com" SERVER_IP_HERE
