Huum, where ever did you get this example from, i bet not from using it;
httpd is a daemon and when its started it will listen for connections on the
defined port, normaly port 80.
Doing what you do will result in;
bind: Address already in use
httpd: could not bind to port 80
However when httpd is started with "httpd" from a bootscript or at the
console, one can use telnet from a console to see if httpd will answer,
when i do;
telnet localhost 80
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.

Connection closed by foreign host.
Which shows me that the daemon is listning on port 80, the command i issued
is irelavant, it shows that the system works.
