If the webserver is configured to reply to bar.com (even if the IP is
different - ie: vhost) you could add the IP and address of the server
to your hosts file if using windows (here's something to read about -
http://accs-net.com/hosts/how_to_use_hosts.html) or your /etc/hosts
file in linux :)

Good Luck!
