Dynamic apache config

[Kurth Bemis]

20 mins using a perl script that runs every 10 mins, checks for changed 
domains in DB...when it finds one it rebuilds the httpd.conf and HUPs 
apache.

this is with 1.3, haven't tried 2 yet.

for new domains we just have the per lscript add the vhost on the end it 
the config file...

It's all part of the interface that we're building for our hosting and 
connectivity customers.
