I'm just about to set up my new PC with XP installed. My current network consists of two 98se PCs. As I'm using Sygate to share my internet connection I have set up file & printer sharing using TCP/IP as recommended in readiness for replacing one of the 98 machines with an XP Home PC. I've also checked the Netbios option.
The remaining 98 PC uses Family Logon to allow two users to have different desktop settings. One user has a password, the other doesn't. This is the PC running Sygate Home Networking.
Can someone advise if file & printer sharing will work simply by setting up the local connection - manually as suggested - or will I need to set up users and passwords on the XP machine to allow it to access the 98 machine. This is the one area where I'm a bit confused.
If I do need to set up users can someone point me in the right direction please?
