Some didn't. :-|
The 'lynx' suggestions worked on local files, didn't work on URLs.

My LAN:

k6    linux-2.0.34 (slakware 3.5.0) IP-MASQ, modem, ether-16/ct (ne2000 clone)
tiger windoze 95, ether-16/ct (ne2000 clone)
dx80  windoze fer workgroups 3.11, wdc8003ep 

 After running ppp-go, I can ping my ISP by numerical address (207.0.229.###),
but not by domain (www.erinet.com|erinet.com)

I can ping all of my LAN computers, but only the linux (k6) can ping  my
ISP and only by dotted-numeric.

ping www.erinet.com
ping: unknown host www.erinet.com

ping erinet.com
ping: unknown host erinet.com

lynx http://www.erinet.com
lynx: Can't access startfile http://www.erinet.com
