Re: winxp
Are you sure you joined the workgroup is that how you have the computers setup? Just to point something out when trying to join an XP machine to a 98 workgroup by default windows 98 setup the workgroup as workgroup where as winxp sets up by default as mshome got to make sure that you change that when you networking your xp machine to the group.
