Domain name/IP addresses in apache

    I have installed Apache 2.2.14 in Mandriva Linux
    It runs but when I start the system it returns
    "Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name using 127.0.0.1 for server name"
    I'm guessing it needs the actual IP address of my computer?
    If this is correct I am not sure where to look to change the file with the correct IP address.
    If my guess is wrong, can anybody correct me?
    Any pointers gratefully received
    Best regards for the weekend

    You can edit the httpd.conf file and add/edit the servername directive:

    ServerName yourservername
