Please do not use the "reply" option of your mailer to send email to
the list, people with mailers that do threading (linking replies)
will not see this as a "new question" and you're more likely not
to get an answer from someone.

That said, the major problem I see here is that your fopen()
may have failed and I'm not sure feof($fp) when $fp doesn't
reference an open file is defined, you need to check the return
value for your open.

 $httpd = "/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf";

 //open file in readonly mode
 if(!($fp = fopen($httpd, "r")) {
    print "some error";
    exit;
 }

Also, your while loop is pretty convoluted, this is a bit clearer:

         while ($line = fgets($fp, 1024));
         {
               //check to see if there is a servername here
               if(eregi("^[[:space:][^#]]*$sub", $line)) {
                   print "$sub is taken try again";
               }
         }
         fclose($fp); // fclose outside of the loop where it belongs.

good luck,
