What parts of the networking are you looking for ?

If It's simply the TCP/IP part, all you have to do is copy the files
containing the TCPIP installation from the CD on to you harddisk in one
way or another.

You also have to install the MPTS part, of the connect, since this is tha
part that manages the network cards. It will be located in a directory
called cid\mptn or cid\mpts on the CD.

Install the MPTS part first, since all other networking products needs
this program to install correctly

If you want to install LSM, Netware, FFST/2, PSF/2 etc, these will all be
located in their corresponding directory located under \cid\

If you have access to another networked machine that has a CD-ROM and is
running warp connect, you can do the installation remote. This is a fast
and easy option. All you have to do is go into the folder :
os2 system -> system setup -> warp connect install / remove 
Here you will find an option that will allow you to do a remote
installation of warp connect. Don't worry, you will get the option to
install only the networking part if you are installing on a system that
already has OS/2 installed on it.

If you have any problems doing this, feel free to send me a mail, and ask
any questions you have about this.
