On my laptop when I run in a terminal " vlc -vvv test_vid.mp4 :sout '#transcode{vcodec=DIV3,vb=512,scale=1,acodec=mpga,ab=32,channels=1}:duplicate{dst=std{access=http,mux=ts,dst=:1234}}' ", I get a VLC window that opens up and plays the video and I can open up another instance of VLC and stream via localhost just fine. The problem I'm having is when I run the same command on my Debian server, it appears to be playing on the server but I'm unable to stream from my laptop.

I added a log option in iptables and verified that I'm reaching the server and connecting to port 1234.
Ultimately I'd like to replace a Windows ASF/WMV streaming server with VLC but having difficult time just streaming a video. Is there a switch I need to run the command line VLC with that will prevent it looking for an audio card and an X interface?
Any and all assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
