go to apache.org  and read the faq on directives - your old httpd.conf will 
not work with the new versions of apache - also, within unix based apache, 
you can verify the syntax of the httpd.conf file by typing 
"/usr/sbin/apachectl configtest" in CLI window.

Next, consider using an opensource ecommerce app - most are far more advanced 
then ch-ching - are free and more secure then the propriatary software you 
have been using. Go to sourcefoge.net and do a search for "ecommerce" or 
"shopping cart".

My personal favorite is Interchange- 

See http://resultsconsultant.com and http://silverjewelbox.com to see what you 
can do with it - resultsconsultant is not a store per se, we also 
incorporated some features from phpwebsite into it as well.

Remember, with real unix, you have the advantage of running real database 
servers rather then make-do apps - two are mysql and postgresql.
