The requirement:

The website under test must be called with a specific name.  In DNS that 
will resolve to something other than the machine against which I am 
testing.  If I hit the IP I will get the default vhost, not the website I 
wish to test.

Suggested solutions:

1) Make Watir pass in a host header alongside an IP
2) Stick a host entry on the machine where Watir runs

Issues:

1)   The browser goto method just takes a string.  I can't see how to do 
anything as clever as pass HTTP headers.
2) Adding a host entry just seems a bit crap.

Suggestions?  Ideas?  Solutions?
