How can I access a CC site via its IP address?

I have several CC sites and none of them allow me to view them by using the hosting IP address.

IE

www.myshop.com would be the site

the following is similar to what I tried and it doesnt work (bogus url btw)

http://122.245.83.111/~myshopusername/

I even tried this

http://122.24583.111/~myshopusername/publi.../cart/index.php

Using any of these sorts of URL's will work fine for some of my normal non CC sites. Is this just a PHP thing?

I want to do this so I can copy over a site from one host to another and I really want to test the site out fully on the new host before I delegate the domain name over.

Are you editing your global.inc.php file to have these URL's?

It's not a PHP thing - it could be a "host headers" thing. Has your ISP specifically said that you can reach your directories this way on a shared server?
