Subject:   hostname or apache problem?
Message-ID:  <OFF2EB9902.39701B21-ON88256B83.006121BF-88256B83.0061D483@simrad.no>

I installed, from source, apache-1.3.23. I should be able to test that it 
works changing 
httpd.conf.default to httpd.conf and starting apachectl start. But when I 
do I get the 
following error in my log:
mod_unique_id: unable to get host by name("cwiegand2")
hostname shows cwiegand2 
I tried changing the directive ServerName to 127.0.0.1 and get the same 
error as above.
Where is it getting my hostname if it doesn't even appear in the 
httpd.conf file? I have 
installed apache (older versions) at least 6 times and this is the first 
time I have come
across this error.
Thanks for the help,
Regards,
