Are you using DSL or a cablemodem?  There's a chance that your ISP is
blocking some or all of your inbound ports.

You might try starting other services (sshd, for example) to see if you
can connect to that.

I don't know about mini_httpd, but many applications can be compiled
with tcpd (tcp wrappers), in which case they'll look at
/etc/hosts.allow, /etc/hosts.deny (I think) to see who can and cannot
connect to that service.

Hope that helps!
