Apache Help: Not finding localhost

[mattt]

My browser can not resolve http://localhost/, but http://127.0.0.1 works fine.

This is the Virual Host section that I'm using in /etc/httpd/httpd.conf

### Section 3: Virtual Hosts
NameVirtualHost 127.0.0.1
<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1>
DocumentRoot /Library/WebServer/Documents
ServerName localhost
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1>
DocumentRoot /Users/mattthiessen/Sites/clients/bpwww
ServerName bpwww
</VirtualHost>

The settings in NetInfo Manager are

/machines/localhost/
myname = 127.0.0.1
name = localhost

However, after turning on box with Fedora Core 4 that is on the same network http://localhost brings up the index.php page on that machine.

Is there anything else I need to set to the http://localhost to work?

It was a DNS issue. My problem was in the lookup order. Found using:

lookupd -configuration

My problem was fixed after following these instructions:
