Obviously, I can't really know exactly what it is without more details
about your network and DNS setup.

Looks fine.  The pids are not really important as long as it doesn't
fail to start at all.

You should probably edit /etc/hosts and change localhost.my.domain in
the following lines:

    ::1                    localhost localhost.my.domain
    127.0.0.1              localhost localhost.my.domain

to something that matches your local domain.  I havn't tried resolving
baphd.gihon.org.au but you should also make sure that it *does* resolve
to an IP address correctly, and that address *does* resolve to
baphd.gihon.org.au or one of its aliases too.
