Thanks for the input about redhat-config-httpd. FYI, I found the same
thing out about redhat-config-bind as well.

I've been building apache, php and squirrelmai from source, so I have
all my configuration files already anyway. I'm hoping that moving to an
rpm base for my software from a source base will ease configuration
management for me.
