Ruby Forum Mongrel > Working offline

I noticed that the server will not work when I am disconnected to the
internet.  Should this always be the case?

Make sure your loopback adapter is active, or you won't be able to
access localhost.
Either that, or describe "will not work" a bit more :)

^ manveru

When I start the server offline no error message appears in the 
terminal, and from ever piece of information outputted there it looks as 
though everything is fine.  Now when I enter in localhost:3000 I cannot 
connect to my application.  When the internet is plugged in I have no 
problem running my application.
