You don't have your fully qualified name in the host file and you are
using the default nobody/nobody for the uid and gid in the httpd.conf
file. You should create a user and a group with no rights like
uid=httpd and gid=www to run the daemon. You must edit your httpd.conf
and set up your servername. There's lots of stuff to tweak in there,
check www.apache.org for more details. Good luck.
