Thank you for your reply!

Yes, it is running.

Here is what that command gives me...


Starting nmap V. 3.00 ( www.insecure.org/nmap/ )
Interesting ports on localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1):
(The 1593 ports scanned but not shown below are in state: closed)
Port       State       Service
22/tcp     open        ssh
25/tcp     open        smtp
111/tcp    open        sunrpc
631/tcp    open        ipp
879/tcp    open        unknown
3306/tcp   open        mysql
6000/tcp   open        X11
10000/tcp  open        snet-sensor-mgmt


When I go to  YDL menu->System Settings->Server Settings->HTTP Server  it
tells me that it is listening to 80, but obviously it isn't.

Yes, httpd.conf does say "Listen *:80"
