When trying to connect to an URL using Lynx 2.8.2, the
message "Alert! unable to connect to remote host" appears momentarily.
I have Linux 5.1 installed and running on a i486 with 8M of RAM. Module PPP
is installed via the command 'modprobe' and verified with 'lsmod'. Dial up
to my IP is via 'ifup ppp0' and verified by 'ifconfig'. I ping my IP
successfully. What more is needed to connect Lynx to my IP which is
pacbell.net, a service provider.
Thank you for any help you can give a Linux novice.
