When in doubt you can always use "localhost".

Hello,
Trying to set up Apache on FC5. Trying to do the basics like Server
name. Can't seem to get past this. Error is "Warning" "The server name
may only contain alphanumeric characters". Trying to put in FC5 and
this is what I get. I have tried other combinations also to no avail.
Anyone have any ideas?
It's looking for a real hostname, like www.example.com
You must use a real name that resolves to the IP address of your server.
Don't just make one up. If you don't have a real hostname, use the IP
address of your server instead, as explained in the comments
in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
