   There existed too much options for networking. Some of this stuff    
   becomes integrated later in Warp Connect, Warp Server and Warp 4.   
      
   To get OS/2 2.x networked, take one of this:   
   * IBM TCP/IP 2.0   
   * IBM OS/2 Extended Services   
   * IBM OS/2 LAN Server / Requester 4.0   
   * IBM DCE Client   
   * IBM Communications Manager/2 1.11   
   * Novell Netware Requester 2.12   
   * Microsoft LAN Manager Client 2.2   
   ...   
      
   Or you could simply download the latest MPTS installer from IBM's FTP    
   server.

   True, only for device driver development or similar tasks you will need    
   16bit Tools, which means MS MASM 5.1 & 6.0, MS C 6.0 or Watcom.
