To display the default Apache page how do I set the primary IP address for my cPanel environment .

Log into your cPanel web server via Secure Shell (SSH).

Located the httpd.conf file using the following command:

located httpd.conf
Open the httpd config file found in step 2 using the following command:

pico /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf
Find the first VirtualHost container in the file. It will look similar to the following: (xx.xx.xx.xx will be the primary IP address of your server)

BytesLog domlogs/cptemp.safesecureweb.com-bytes_log ServerName cptemp.safesecureweb.com DocumentRoot /usr/local/apache/htdocs
Above this section, add the following:

ServerAlias xx.xx.xx.xx ServerAdmin admin@domain.com DocumentRoot /usr/local/cpanel/htdocs ServerName xx.xx.xx.xx
Save and exit the file.

Test the config file to ensure the text you entered is properly formatted using the following command:

/etc/init.d/httpd configtest
Assuming the test returns the message Syntax OK, restart Apache using the following command:

/etc/init.d/httpd restart
The restart of Apache will make your websites unavailable for a few seconds.
