Save As Permissions stopped!

Hi I have 1x Win98 SE machine and 1x XP machine. My files are located on
the Win98 machine (shared) so that I can access them on the XP machine.

However only til recent when I open a document (Word document) up in the XP
machine and try to use Save As, this tells me that the path is either
incorrect or I do not have permissions. If however I overwrite the file,
this works fine!!

My concern is this has been working for the past 3 years and all of a sudden
stopped.

I have a LMHOSTS file on my XP machine so I know it can resolve the name
across the network.

Any ideas?

Cheers
Paul.
