Am running Nitrogen 2.0.X on Windows 7 Home Premium, HP Pavilion Entertainment PC Laptop.
Nitrogen starts with inets and i have failed to change or dictate the IP address of the webserver.
Once it starts, it tells me to go to my browser and hit http://localhost:8000 in the shell output below:
erl -make Starting Nitrogen on Inets (http://localhost:8000)... Eshell V5.8.4 (abort with ^G)
Hitting the link in almost all available browsers shows that page could not be found. When i ask the emulator about the ports, this is its output:
(motv@josh.ekampus.internal)1> inet:i(). Port Module Recv Sent Owner Local Address Foreign Address State 3109 inet6_tcp 0 0 *:8000 *:* ACCEPTING 618 inet_tcp 0 0 *:9543 *:* ACCEPTING 637 inet_tcp 4 19 localhost:9544 localhost:4369 CONNECTED Port Module Recv Sent Owner Local Address Foreign Address State ok (motv@josh.ekampus.internal)2>
Am having a strong thought that inet6_tcp means that its using IPv6 while inet_tcp means IPv4, not very sure about this. But all in all, i cannot connect to my Nitrogen. These below are the running applications
(motv@josh.ekampus.internal)2> application:which_applications().
[{quickstart,"Nitrogen Quickstart",[]},
{inets,"INETS CXC 138 49","5.6"},
{nprocreg,"NProcReg - Simple Erlang Process Registry.",
"0.1"},
{stdlib,"ERTS CXC 138 10","1.17.4"},
{kernel,"ERTS CXC 138 10","2.14.4"}]

Can someone explain why i cannot Reach my Local Nitrogen Framework by just hitting http://localhost:8000 in the browser, given the observations above? And, how can i connect to it from my browser?
Some guesses:
Did you try http://127.0.0.1:8000 ?
If that doesn't work, can you startup erlang with forced ip4 support (i think):
-proto_dist inet_tcp
