This is a pretty easy problem to work around (though these are the
paths for FreeBSD):
$cp httpd.conf httpd.conf.bak
$ee httpd.conf (edit file here with your editor of choice)
$/usr/local/sbin/apachectl configtest
(if it fails, you can revert to the backup, or compare them... also
configtest will give you verbose output as to where/why it failed)
$/usr/local/sbin/apachectl restart
There are a few different web/GUI based ways out there of mucking
around in httpd.conf as well if it's too scary for someone.
