The "Static" assignment was on the hypothesis that the two IP addresses that the two machines were used to take were internal to the modem. Actually, changing from DHCP to Static has broken any connection to internet, i.e., if I understand, that "Static" is to the eth# connection, while my provider assigns me a dynamic address.
The server should only serve between the two machines at the router. Perhaps, if I understand your suggestion, the solution, any time the IP address changes, is to "You only need to reassign the keys in your "known_hosts" file appropriately." I do not intend the Apache2 for external use.
