Ok, so I just ran "./chkconfig httpd on" from /sbin. I then tried 
http://localhost/ and nada. 
If I were to use /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd start 
I would be able to see my index.html, or whatever topped the default list.
What did running "chkconfig httpd on" do and how can I do what I want which is 
actually start httpd and control whether or not it starts at boot?
