does networking work at all? if the machine is disconnected it might 
drop (part of) tcp/ip networking and jetty would fail to bind to 
0.0.0.0:8080. perhaps you can get jetty to bind to a loopback address 
only like 127.0.0.1:8080.

Note I could be way off; it's been a long time since I've seen 
disconnected machines.


also using eg. curl with high verbosity may give better diagnostic info 
than a browser
