But apache doesn't like the fact that it can't resolve the
lappy's hostname to an IP number and it will not load. The laptop
gets its IP # via DHCP so it changes at various locations.

I could use the localhost name & IP #, which should work.

My laptop is named 'laptop' (laptop.mydomain.com)

Is there a way to have the system utilize it's assigned IP #?
Or do I have to change my apache config to "localhost" ?


Hi,

You can enter (assuming 'lappy' is the hostname):

127.0.0.1 localhost lappy

in /etc/hosts and set the ListenAddress directive in Apache to bind to
that IP.


Oops. Listen 127.0.0.1:80

Too much SSH config-ing for me lately. :)
