Well, maybe you should be working on srm.conf

But, then to do httpd.conf, when you edit it on your desktop

You have to ftp the file to admin user
then SSH into the server as admin
   su - to root
save /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
  cp /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf.save
then move the /home/sites/home/users/admin/httpd.conf
  mv /home/sites/home/users/admin/httpd.conf /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
then fix the owner:group
  chown root:root /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
then make sure that permissions are correct
  chmod  644 /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf 
then restart httpd
  /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd restart
