Ah, ok.  That's good to know, though I did put the module to autoload
in my loader.conf file.

Not yet.  I was just trying to start it via "/usr/local/sbin/apachectl".

Thanks for the info.  I actually found that, apparently, apache 22 is
much more of a stickler for an IP address to hostname than is apache
1.3.  I did a little bit of slight of hand in /etc/hosts and then
started apache and it actually started for me.

I didn't think this was the problem because on my personal machine I'm
running 1.3 and I get this same error, but the server still starts.

Thanks everybody.
