	First of all, this is - I believe - not the recommended way to
start apache.  Instaed use the script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d.

	You mean like this?

[Mon Mar 13 11:07:53 2006] [alert] (EAI 8)hostname nor servname
provided, or not known: mod_unique_id: unable to find IPv4 address
of "jerusalem.litteratus.org" Configuration Failed 

	This happened after upgrading to:

FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT #0: Mon Mar 13 09:23:39 EST 2006

	Two suggestions:
	1) check that all interfaces apache is supposed to be listening
on exist.  For some reason one of mine didn't.
	2) make sure your hostname is DNS-resolvable.  (Even if this is
not visible to the Internet, it still needs to reaolve.)
