httpd is the apache server. I would assume that you haven't configured the config file and it can't get a fully qualified domain name from you setup.

If you don't want to run apache, simply type

#chkconfig httpd off

You need to make sure you have a VirtualHost setup and/or that your /etc/hosts file is correct.

A quick search in these forums leads to this thread:

I always like this site for various networking config questions. Here's a link to their apache section
