Thanks.. But I still have a problem, when I check my URL 
http://myaddress/smokeping its says page can not be displayed but if I 
remove the smokeping just http://my address/ it will display the 
directory. when I start the apache22 it says

# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache22 start
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache22: Command not found.

# /usr/local/sbin/apachectl  start ( it will start the program)

what to do with this this? thanks
