You want to be careful about rpm based apache after you are used to source based apache because the source based apache builds it all under /usr/local/apache and the rpm based stuff drops it all over the place i.e.: /sbin/httpd /etc/httpd/conf etcetera etcetera.

FYI, I found the same thing out about redhat-config-bind as well. I've been building apache, php and squirrelmai from source, so I have all my configuration files already anyway. I'm hoping that moving to an rpm base for my software from a source base will ease configuration management for me.
