Ignore that error message that just means you dont have DNS setup thats why it cannot find a qualified domain name and instead it uses your ip address without resolving to a name. Start up apache daemon with your previouse command:
# usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl start
Launch your web browser and type this in the link section:
http://localhost:80
or
http://192.168.1.100:80
Im assuming your ineternal ip address is 192.168.1.100. To check your internal ip address use the following command:
# ifconfig -a
Look at 'eth0' section.
Hope this helps.
