Thanks for the advice so far, but... Why is the win98 not
able to access the share after enabling the guest
account? Enabling the guest account works fine on other
P2P networks where I'm accessing a win2000 station from a
win98 station. And... if the xp ACL is already set for
Everyone to access and it still doesn't allow Everyone,
why would it allow another used if it were setup in ACL?
Also, when I did try and setup a user on the xp with the
same name/domain as the win98 user, the xp says it can't
set it up because of some "trust account" problem. I'm
setting the new user as Tom (same as the win98 system) and
entering in the domain they both are members of. Still
not working...
Any help would be appreciated, Thanks..
