Some additional details:

   - I can play the files on the computer to which the external hd is
   connected using http://192.168.1.3:5190/.
   - I can see the files on my laptop connected to the lan using
   http://192.168.1.3:5190/.
   - netstat is now reporting 5190 as open.
   - I can download files through gnump3d, but can't open them in either vlc
   or mplayer.
