Sorry I take that back, I typed in the wrong IP address ;(.
With the right IP i get the following
------------
--16:37:41--  http://192.168.0.4:8080/
           => `index.html.1'
Connecting to 192.168.0.4:8080...
------------
and it sits there until it times out.
Most definitely a networking problem.
I am just about to check the mandrake 9.2 network settings.

Sorry all
