I've set up a test server in-house using FreeBSD 4.10.  Now I'm trying =
to start the apache web services and get the following error whenever I =
try to start apache:=20

[Tue Oct 12 12:16:15 2004] [alert] mod_unique_id: unable to =
gethostbyname("avs-2.com")

and the server can't start.=20

This is an in house test server only, but I don't want to use =
"localhost" or 127.0.0.1 because two of us use that on our Windows PC's =
to test on Windows web server. =20

How can I fix this?  I'm not finding what I need to change in the =
httpd.conf file -- or do I need to set up some sort of fake DNS to see =
this on my network?=20

Thanks for your help!

Lynette
