Somewhere around line 279 look for the ServerName directive in
$APACHE_ROOT/conf/httpd.conf. Just add:

ServerName yer_server_name_here

Make sure it's not commented out, and kill -HUP apache. You should be good
to go.

srm and access are only there for backwards compatibilty, they recommend
you use httpd.conf.

You said you were using /usr/sbin/http. Apache supplies a script to start
httpd. It should be $APACHE_ROOT/bin/apachectl and uses start, restart,
and stop.
