This sounds like a permission problem. What are the permissions of the dir
your serving?
Try first to use a nouser-nogroup share and see if you can get that to work.

Can you tell me what the output of two command are ? __ ifconfig and netstat
-nr . The're output would help to figure out your problem. Sounds like your
ip address and or routing isn't right. But you can ping so I may be all wet.
I found if you use dhcp in the past your scripts may be looking for
something still after you configure your system for a static address. So
take a look at them also.
