RE: Nothing works - Apache doesn't work in 6.2

[Kevin_Saenz dell com]

what install did you select when installing RH6.2?

what do you get when you show the list of processors?
i.e 
ps ax
even try
ps ax|grep httpd

have you install inetd? do you have your portmap running?
I can't answer your ip conflict if your are positive you have
given the right ip address to the the right machine.

It looks like your httpd.conf file is a little screwy.
in my httpd.conf my structure is like

<Directory />
    Options FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride None
</Directory>        

<Directory "/home/httpd/html">
    Options Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks 
   Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>           

Alias /icons/ "/home/httpd/icons/"

<Directory "/home/httpd/icons">
    Options Indexes MultiViews
    AllowOverride None
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>        

What was wrong with the default httpd.conf file?
I would also check the ownership of the directories under httpd
