Install MultiMedia Presentation Manager for OS/2 (MMPM/2) which comes on 
floppies in with your OS/2 install disks.  Put in disk 1, and type A:\MINSTALL

You can get the drivers from ftp-os2.cdrom.com...  Then use MINSTALL to 
install them.  (MINSTALL is on your hard drive now that you've installed 
MMPM/2)

What kind of ethernet card do you have?  You may be able to use Lan WorkPlace 
for OS/2 which is currently available by ftp from net-dist.mit.edu:/pub/dos/lwp
4os2.  Make sure you read both readme files in that directory.

|> 4) I have Procomm/PLUS for Windows. Can I get it to work in OS/2 ?

Yes, it should work fine as is.  What problems are you having?
