That webserver crashed and I replaced it with a new cpu and installed OS X 10.5 Leopard and have encountered a number of errors in my configuration. This is the latest error from the old config files. Any suggestions or pointers as to what might be using this address or how I could find out would be appreciated.

Sounds like you have something already running. Try "sudo lsof -i | grep domain" to see whether anything is running on port 53. If there are any results, the second column is the process number, and you can do "ps wwx <number>" to see what it is.
