That's bad, m'k?  First thing: "rpm -V apache".  If anything but the
configs has an S or 5, then you probably need to reinstall.

If that's not the trouble (and I don't really expect it to be), then you
should stop apache, and run:
strace -f /usr/sbin/httpd 2> /tmp/segfault.log

If you don't have strace installed, it's on the CD.

try to open a web page from a client.  Apache should have segfaulted,
and the reason why may be in /tmp/segfault.log.  If you've never looked
at a stack trace before, it's kinda hairy.  bzip2 the file and email it
to me.  I'll see if I can spot the problem.
