You cannot connect to a remote server for a command session via lynx - you should be looking towards ssh.
You can't (without the use of a Java SSH client) connect to a remote server via Lynx (or another browser) to conduct command line sessions.
Use lynx for browsing the web; ssh for command line sessions; ftp (or sftp) for file transfer. Each tool has a purpose.
