The Win98 computer needs to participate in the same workgroup as the XP computers. &nbsp;You need to check &quot;client for microsoft networks&quot; and make sure that it has the appropriate workgroup information (you get to this information by going to the properties of Network Neighborhood). &nbsp;<br />
<br />
You will also need to make sure that the user that logs onto the Win98 computer has an account on the XP computer that the share is on. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
Another thing to keep in mind is that 98 is not good with long file names, so you should stick to share names with 8 characters or less.<br />
<br />
Hope this helps and Good Luck.<br />

Dan,

The Win98 computer needs to participate in the same workgroup as the XP computers.  You need to check "client for microsoft networks" and make sure that it has the appropriate workgroup information (you get to this information by going to the properties of Network Neighborhood).  

You will also need to make sure that the user that logs onto the Win98 computer has an account on the XP computer that the share is on.  

Another thing to keep in mind is that 98 is not good with long file names, so you should stick to share names with 8 characters or less.

Hope this helps and Good Luck.

I have three pcs all on xp, running a wireless network all running fine. Ics is even working ok. I have just added a fourth machine running win98. I cannot access the 'server' machine because it asks for a password and all my regular passwords do not work. How do I go about setting up permissions and access ics from this machine?<br />

Thanks

win98 networking

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.

Networking

Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) is the set of networking protocols that define end-to-end connectivity specifying how data should be packeted, addressed, transmitted, routed and received at the destination. This functionality is organized into four abstraction layers which are used to sort all related protocols according to the scope of networking involved.
