Actually, just make sure that there's a line in /etc/hosts that reads:
127.0.0.1 localhost
localhost.localdomain
Adding the following to the beginning of /usr/bin/netscape allows me to
start Netscape while not online (previously, it would freeze trying to
read the default index.html page):
export MOZILLA_HOME=/usr/lib/netscape/
export CLASSPATH=/usr/lib/netscape/java/classes/
export NS_NETHELP_PATH=/usr/lib/netscape/
export
MOZILLA_NO_ASYNC_DNS=True
