With all due respect, you were already offered the solution that will save you the most grief, namely "use the port." You should back up any configuration files that you have already worked on, delete every trace of the apache that you installed and install it again from the ports collection. One excellent example of why the ports collection is a good idea is that a patch for a recently uncovered security flaw in apache was applied the same day it was made available. You have a whole team of people looking out for you that are trying to make your life easier, take advantage of that. :) Good luck, Doug
