I have tried WEBrick.

[root@localhost ltw]# ruby script/server WEBrick  
=\> Booting WEBrick  
=\> Rails 2.3.3 application starting on [http://0.0.0.0:3000](http://0.0.0.0:3000)  
=\> Call with -d to detach  
=\> Ctrl-C to shutdown server

bind(2)  
[2009-08-13 23:55:14] INFO WEBrick::HTTPServer#start: pid=4233  
port=3000

and no any error. port 3000 is ok. I still got this even I use another  
port .

[root@localhost ltw]# ruby script/server WEBrick -p 3213  
=\> Booting WEBrick

and I have tried Mongrel, and got this:

[root@localhost ltw]# mongrel\_rails start -p 8000  
\*\* Starting Mongrel listening at 0.0.0.0:8000  
\*\* Starting Rails with development environment…

\*\* Rails signals registered. HUP =\> reload (without restart). It  
might not work well.  
\*\* Mongrel 1.1.5 available at 0.0.0.0:8000  
\*\* Use CTRL-C to stop.

both of above can not got the page. Nothing got in the log.
