If info can't find anything newer, then the man page is the best you have,
even with the disclaimer.

At the command line, type "lynx filename.html", replacing "filename" with
the full path to the file you want to view. This is explained in the man
page for lynx, on the second screen, right below the heading OPTIONS (before
the other 254, I guess). If lynx is already running, you just enter the
filename after pressing the G-for-go key, same as you would a URL out on the
net.
I don't know Red Hat well enough to help with your networking problems, so
I'm omitting the rest of your posting.
Oh ... one thought ... files from bootdisks may be old-style a.out, not ELF,
for reasons of compactness. So it *is* possible that you chose the wrong
modprobe to install -- in looking at a RH 5.1 CD I have around, I can't see
where you might have "copied the modprobe file" from, so that's really a
shot in the dark on my part.
Good luck. Hope some of this helps.
