Hi
I've seen a similar thing where after several minutes Apache would serve
up a random Virtual Host for all Virtual Hosts except the first one in
httpd.conf
It drove me nuts for three days, and that we traced it back to one of
the "contributed" Apache modules (can't remember which one) that SuSE
enabled by default in v7.1.
Setting "HTTPD_SEC_MOD_MISC=no" in /etc/rc.config.d/apache.rc.config
solved the problem (eg do not load any of the non-Apache group modules).
That sort of put me off SuSE (along with yast/yast2).
