I'm a teacher for Fort Worth ISD. I just recieved a new XP Pro lab and I'm
trying to set it up so I can use an old 98 PC as a file server. I've created
folders for all of my students on the 98 PC's, given them passwords and
shared them. When the students sit on the XP pC's and try to save to their
folder it tells them that the disk is full or right protected.

Students move around my lab and work in groups. I'd like to set it up so
that students can access their shared folders on the file sever (win98) from
any XP PC.

Thank you for your time and assistance.
Todd
