Then at the end of this script, you start apache as follows (using pseudo-code): if the IP address is available apachectl -D IPavailable else apachectl end The <IfDefine IPavailable> block does not run a script. It simply checks to see whether a particular variable (IPavailable) was passed on the command line when apache was started. It is your responsibility to pass that variable conditional on the availability of the IP address.
