No, that wasn't your problem. When "UseCanonicalName off" is set
(which is typically the default) ServerName doesn't do anything. And
even when it does something, it wouldn't prevent you from connecting
to the server.

If you are completely lost, you should consider buying a book to get started:
http://opensource.atlassian.com/confluence/oss/display/BOOKS/Books+on+Apache+HTTP+Server+%28httpd%29

But if you want to go at it yourself, it's not a bad idea to go
through each directive in httpd.conf and look it up in the list here:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/directives.html
to figure out what it does.
