Have you set the environment variable : MOZILLA_HOME to point to the
root of your Netscape install ?
If you have in installed in /opt add the following to the .bash_profile
file
for any of the users who will need to use it :

MOZILLA_HOME=/opt/netscape

export MOZILLA_HOME USERNAME BASH_ENV PATH
                                          
The 'export' line should already be there. Just add 'MOZILLA_HOME' to
the list... .

You might want to log on as root and type : echo $MOZILLA_HOME 
as a way to find the correct path...

"Waving away a cloud of smoke, I look up, and am blinded by a bright,
white
light. It's God. No, not Richard Stallman, or Linus Torvalds, but God.
In
a booming voice, He says: "THIS IS A SIGN. USE LINUX, THE FREE UNIX
SYSTEM
FOR THE 386."
