It does not do so for me.
Server is BL3 (192.168.1.2)
Client is BL2 (192.168.1.1)
Ethernet connection. pings okay.

On server go into a directory with index.htm in it
Type httpd

On client type
links
g
http://192.168.1.2  404 Not found
g
http://192.168.1.2/index.htm  - serves the page

I think the http:// is not required.

I do this with links (not d), g, http://localhost
404 Not Found  The requested URL was not found on this server.
http://localhost/index.htm - serves the page index.htm
http:// is required in this case.  Otherwise it looks in the current 
directory.

g
192.168.1.2/index.htm  also works (from computer 2 to itself)
