Which completely circumvents the usual process for starting up apache,
and will be wiped away with a simple 'service httpd restart' or even
better (the weekly logrotate), and require you to reboot the machine
or call your script again.  That might not be the *best* solution.

Ian's previous post about setting variables in /etc/sysconfig/httpd is
correct. Define the vars in /etc/sysconfig/httpd, and make sure you
export them there.

This is the intended use and the 'redhat' method.
