Home Network Help Needed

I have a home network set up with three computers. One computer is running Windows XP Pro, one is running Windows XP Home and the final is running Windows 98 SE. I am unable to connect the computer running XP Pro to the computer running 98SE. The XP home can connect to and share files and printers together but the XP Pro cannot. The XP pro can see the 98 SE computer but when I try to access it it tells me I do not have enough privaledges and to contact the network admin. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Links - welcome to TechIMO!

Sounds like a permissions issue. Just make sure you have allowed the win98 PC to have a user login, otherwise XP Pro might not allow itself to see access the share.

I suggest you check Helmig's site for information about networking between winXP Pro and win9x.

Hope this helps.

Cheers
Mick
