Yeah, I'm gonna keep hacking that out then.
First - there's no apache when I'm developing.
Second - not a lot of hosting providers have approved apache 2 (like
mine).
Third - moving an image to a new box where the hostname has been set
prevents access to the web tools to change the host name.
I don't mind if it is syntactically wrong if it works right. I don't
much like it if it is syntactically right but doesn't work at all.
