I'm not an Apache expert by any means, but one of the changes in the new httpd.conf is this:Mod_rendezvous allows your Personal Web Sharing apache server to advertise its presence via Rendezvous.

Which sounds kinda cool, even if I don't know what it does. :-) mod_rendezvous?
Have you been using Safari? In the bookmarks manager is a "Rendezvous" group. This will show other web servers near you that have the mod_rendezvous module loaded. They should appear as "[username]'s Web Site".
if you don't know what Rendezvous is, see <http://www.apple.com/macosx/jaguar/rendezvous.html>. Basically, it's part of Zeroconf that allows services to advertise themselves to clients on the local subnet. It serves the same function as NBP in AppleTalk did, if you're familiar with that.
