Hi Brian!

I would love to help but I do not yet understand what it is you want to do.

If you want to install Dapper using a network install then you will
need to use google a bit longer than I here.

If you want to copy the Dapper ISO over the network to another machine
then you can set up an ftp server (search the words "ftp server" in
synaptic), or set up an nfs share (search for "nfs" after going to
System > Help > System Documentation), or even do a Samba share
(search for "samba" as above or in Google).  If you have a 1G or
better USB drive (I remember Dapper at about 650Mb), that is also a
very easy way.

If you want to do the "thin client" thing (boot Dapper from the
network (can use a diskless computer to do so) then see :

Well I hope this is helpful, if not please give us a bit more
information about what it is that you are trying to do.  Please also
write back and tell us what you did use.

Good Hunting.
