As far as I know, you will need an FQDN for you to proceed with CWP installation, which means, you need a subdomain pointed to your hosting server, see You do not have permission to view the full content of this post. Log in or register now.

In your case, I do not think Virtualbox will be the best option for you to play around. Try getting your VPS instead, you may visit Digital Ocean, Vultr and OVH. I hope this will help you out.

Fair enough. So if you just want to play around with Linux and web server which is a very good idea, you can easily setup LAMP stack.

On Debian and its variants:
apt-get update && apt-get install <apache2 or nginx>

CentOS:
yum install -y <httpd or nginx>

Does not have to. For just testing purposes, VirtualBox is an excellent choice. You don't need an FQDN, as you can easily hardcode the host name into the /etc/hosts file. Or if you feel adventurous, you can setup an authoritative DNS (such as nsd) for your imaginary domain.

What I usually do when testing with headless (no GUI) VBox is I allocate 2 (or more) NICs. One for internal LAN where you setup your http server to listen to. Another for SSH connection from host-to-vbox so I can work on a fullscreen terminal.

Glad to know this is possible.
