Our Apache server has been running for months on a RedHat 6.0 Linux server
(on port 80).  Today, it seemed to have crashed (still investigating why).
Now we can't get it to come back up on port 80, but it'll work just fine on
port 81.  The logs say it can't bind to port 80.

2 things:
1) Is there a way to see what ports are available and/or being used?

2) Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Thanks for any and all help - we've been beating our brains trying to fix
it.  We also tried upgrading to RedHat 6.1, so now we are on Apache 1.3.9,
but the same problem is there.  We have rebuilt the binary a couple of
times, rebooted the server, stop and started various daemons countless times
to no avail.

If you have apache set to port 80 in it's .conf file, when you execute httpd
it'll start and stop right away - that's when you look in the logs and see
that it has the binding problem.
