Getting hg serve to work

[Jeffrey Barish]

I'm trying to get hg serve to work from a remote system.  I think that I'm 
almost there.  I have the server running in the directory that is the top of 
the repository (/home/user/top/of/repo).  From the remote system, I do
hg clone http://nn.nnn.nnn.nnn/home/user/top/of/repo.  Nothing happens.  The 
command just hangs.  I get no response at the server.  I can telnet to the 
server and if I type help I get a response at both ends.  I suspect that I'm 
giving the wrong clone command on the remote system, but I've run out of 
ideas of variants to try.
