Running AIX 3.2.5 on an IBM RS6000 570 machine.

I downloaded lynx 2-8-2

I did NOT change anything configuration wise; in fact
pretty much did nothing except what the INSTALLATION
file stated:

If you are on a UNIX platform, the easiest way to build Lynx is to type:

            ./configure
    and
            make


Then copied the executable for lynx to /usr/local/bin
Then copied lynx.cfg to /usr/local/lib

>lynx -version
 Lynx Version 2.8.2rel.1 (01 Jun 1999)
 Built on aix3.2.5 Jan 4 2000 10:49:02

>lynx
Display at the lower left corner of the screen:
Looking up lynx.browser.org.

It just sits there forever; nothing displayed;
Press an "h" key a couple of times; receive the following message:
Alert!: Unable to connect to remote host. 

I CAN GET TO lynx.browser.org with Netscape.

Tried the following:
>lynx file://localhost/usr/local/bin/dlw
Display at the lower left corner of the screen:

Getting file://localhost/usr/local/bin/dlw

Press any key and the file is displayed but it
will NOT display unless a key is pressed.

Press H for Help
Looking up www.crl.com. is displayed in lower left corner
of screen.

Sits there for awhile...press a key and receive
Alert!: Unable to connect to remote host.


???
