Take a look at the 'ServerName' directive in your httpd.conf file. Try
uncommenting said directive, and put your IP address beside it. From
httpd.conf, look particularily at the last paragraph:

# ServerName gives the name and port that the server uses to identify
itself.
# This can often be determined automatically, but we recommend you
specify
# it explicitly to prevent problems during startup.
# 
# If this is not set to valid DNS name for your host, server-generated

# redirections will not work.  See also the UseCanonicalName directive.
#  
# If your host doesn't have a registered DNS name, enter its IP address
here.
# You will have to access it by its address anyway, and this will make
# redirections work in a sensible way.

However, I would think the hosts file would have done it though, but
it's worth a try.
