 Try getting the source for netscape at
ftp://ftp.codemeta.com/pub/mirrors/redhat/updates/5.2/SRPMS/netscape-4.08-1.src.rpm
 and do a rpm --rebuild netscape-4.08-1.src.rpm
then rpm --install /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/netscape-4.08-1.alpha.rpm

I have not tried this personally as I don't have X on my alpha at all, however,
this should work perfectly.

 Try setting up Samba... it comes with rh5.2 and allows you to share files with
windows PCs.
