Yes, but it needs a bit of tweaking.
First, if you are using eralier versions of Warp 3 you are advised to
upgrade to the newer PPP package; the original dialup was SLIP only (if
I remember correctly) and the newer one also fixes and few bugs and
generally works better.

Second, take a look at ftp.demon.co.uk/pub/os2 where there are various
text documents, OS/2 ports of parts of the DIS DOS package and a set of
Rexx scripts for handling mail and news, all of which are extremely
useful.

Though it is perfectly possible to get DOIP to work, InJoy is a far
better dialler.  For a mere trifle of a registration fee (and the
unregistered shareware version is completely usable to try out) you get
a really neat and flexible package which handles automated login script
learning, PPP or SLIP, auto redial if the line drops, dial on demand
(registered only) IP masquerading if you want it, and everything
configurable but with sensible defaults.
