I have set up webware in this way too, without a problem.

Did you place the WebKit.cgi properly, or use the Apache mod?

Assuming cgi, what happens when you try this:

	http://resdev1.dev.oclc.org/cgi-bin/WebKit.cgi

Don't know if this will be of any help with your *particular*  
problem, but I've documented installing Webware through Apache on a  
few different Linux platforms:

http://mmh.neurobashing.com/webware/

Maybe something there will spark an idea as to what's wrong?

This is ok. By default, the server does only listen on localhost, for 
security reasons.

You should use your IP address here, not your hostname.

I just checked in a fix for the next version allowing names here, as 
well as 'localhost' = '127.0.0.1' and '' = '0.0.0.0' (all interfaces).

Also, the built-in HTTP server is mainly for testing and debugging. 
Usually you will use a real web server installed on the same machine and 
use a WebKit adapter to connect to Webware, then Host = '127.0.0.1' will 
also be the appropriate setting.
