I believe the easiest solution is to define the ServerName field in your
httpd.conf file:
ServerName www.yourdomain.com
A hosts entry like the following would do the trick as well:
192.168.0.9 www www.yourdomain.com
Of course, you don't have to use www -- it could be any prefix.
A DNS zone file defining a local or a registered public domain would
work as well -- assuming you're running bind.
