Apart from doing a lot of tweaks on the config side, you might want to
consider using a security scanner like Nessus.  http://www.nessus.org/
.  Of course the scanner is no good if you do not keep the plugins
updated.
Also try a google search.  The very first hit I got (securing apache) 
is http://www.securityfocus.com/infocus/1694 .  A bit outdated but im
sure much of it still applies.
