How to access the staging server to:
The Staging Server is a copy of Sermons Online that can be used to test software updates and to edit wiki pages before releasing them on the real, production Sermons Online server. To use the Staging Server, you need to make a temporary change to a Windows configuration file that changes the Internet address of sermonsonline.com on your local computer. While this temporary change is in effect, you would browse to sermonsonline.com to edit wiki pages as if you were using the real site. However, your actual changes would be saved on the Staging Server. Once you are done editing, you would restore the configuration file, and then let Dave know that your staged changes are ready to be released. Dave will then do the necessary copying.
