CF server

[techwar]

I replaced the primary web server and the new server has CF 8.
I want to make the old web server a test server without having to change all the links on the server. How can I make the links on the server see itself instead of seeing the now new live server?

Dont know if im understanding you correctly but are your links variableized.

meaining are you posting your link like

<a href="[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.yoursite.com?id=1">link</a>[/URL]

OR

<a href#cgi.script_name#?id=1">link</a>

Well I am just getting back to this just to let you know what I did.
C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts Edit the hosts file. Change the 127.0.0.1 "Server name" without the quotes.
Works just the way I want it to.
