sharing resources in winXP / Win98

[Learning]

I have a home network with one WinXP Pro machine and one Win98SE machine.

From my WinXP Pro machine I try to access my C drive on my Win98 machine I am asked for a password. I enter the password but WinXP does not do anything, I cannot get into my win98 C drive.

Why?

Anyone can help?

Go to the C drive on the WIN98 machine, right click on the drive and go to Sharing...

Then check the option which allows Full Access to the drive without a password.

You may have done this already, but if not, there you go

But I want the password........

does it work fine without the password?

Yes it works fine. But I still want a Password. Stubborn aren’t I ?

There must be a way for WinXP to work with security witn Win98SE. There has to be a way, and I'll find it.

thank you
