I don't think that this is an Apache-config problem.  Check out your
/etc/hosts file.  It should have an entry for 'localhost' with the IP
address 127.0.0.1, and another line which lists your 'real' IP address
and 'real' hostname.  Here's mine:

127.0.0.1       localhost       localhost.localdomain
192.168.1.3     fred    fred.twopoint.com

If that's already set up, then I'm not sure. . .
