OK, I finally have it working at about 99%. Maybe not quite that much depending on how you look at it.

the final problem I am having is probably related to how I set up my network when I installed OpenBSD 3.9 In previous installations of OpenBSD I just accepted the defaults during the network card setup and everything worked out ok. this time I have been struggling with my host name and domain name. The problem for me right now is I don't have a domain name for this network and before my domain was just defaulted to my.domain. But now It seems to want to act like I am some how a DNS or something, I'm not sure.

Anyway the symptom is that when I visit my wiki site I go there with the url 192.168.1.106/wiki/ but as it starts to load the page it changes my url to myhost.my.domain/wiki/index.php/Main_Page and then fails to load. but if I type the url as 192.168.1.106/wiki/index.php/ Man_Page it will load the page just fine. From there I can click on the links and every thing continues to work fine. (On some pages if I leave the page up for a little while it will automaticallyswithc the url to the myhostname.my.domain and fail to load. I just retype the url with my local IP and things load back up fine again, but I have to leave that page or it will fail again.

I hope I can fix this problem without having to reinstall OpenBSD (and all) again.
