I think you might have hit on it Steve.  I DID update from 2.0.48 to 2.0.49 not too 
long ago, I didn't replace my config files because the changes looked superficial, and 
Apache kept running.  I can't recall if I restarted the service or not though.  Either 
way, I think it speaks volumes for the stability of Apache that even if it's config 
files or binary files change, the system just keeps working - until a reboot that is.  
I don't think I've ever seen that kind of performance from IIS.
 
I finished my "emerge" of apache, but it didn't overwrite my conf files with the 
default ones (which would normally be a good thing).  So I removed it completly from 
the server and am trying again.  I should be up and running in an hour or so...

btw, any email to my open2space.com account is probably bouncing right now - I just 
got the DNS records updated with the new IP address - that'll take a bit to propagate.

        That is kind of odd.  /etc/apache2/modules becomes
        /etc/apache2/modules/modules, and for what reason?  Could it have been
        an upgrade you installed in the past, but haven't since restarted
        apache2 (so it never got applied)?
        
        I'd go to your distribution's support archive and search that for
        these symptoms.  Or if you installed stock apache2, search their
        support for it.  Just finding out when they went from modules to
        modules/modules might help.  If you've backups you can search, they
        may be worth looking at too.
        
        chkrootkit output is promising.  That's one of my favourite tools.  It
        doesn't sound like your config file has been replaced.  It does sound
        like apache2 changed sometime without your noticing that specific
        change.
