Well, Moin is a wiki app, not a full webserver.  That's why Apache was 
suggested before.

But it think you can do [[file:///some/path/to/mypicture.jpg]]  I would 
expect problems trying to get everything mapped the same on all 
machines, though.

Sure. Just view the source of your wiki page and look at the URL paths 
to the javascript files.  Compare that with the file paths on your disk.
