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.) Robert Huff
