When apache starts up if it don't have your hostname set in it's
config file then it issues a system call asking what
the hostname for the IP address is that is on your host.
whatever it gets back it then uses to setup a default website. If you
change the name of your host in /etc.rc.conf then it better also
have been changed in any DNS servers that your system is using.
