Specifying IP address with curl/wget
Hello,
I am wondering does anyone know of a method using curl/wget or other where by I could specify the IP address of the server I wish to query for a website.
Something similar to editing /etc/hosts but that can be done directly from the command line. I have looked through the man pages for both curl and wget and the only options to specify and IP address refer to choosing the bind-address if your machine is bound to multiple IP's.
Perhaps I am looking at this in the wrong way. Any suggestions on how I may get this to work are welcome.
Thanks,
Colin
