If apache2 works on macs how it does on linux (it should, right?)
there should be Apache2/sites-enabled and Apache2/sites-available
directories - the "default" files in these will tell you what pages
are being served, I believe.
Maybe apachectl restart?
Also, I think the processes are normal, but I'm not sure. Apache is a
pretty heavyweight server.
