Problem accessing 98 box from 2000 box

Recommended Posts

Hello. Am trying to share files/folders between a 98 and 2000 machine. I had it working with 98 on both, but once I upgraded one to 2000, it now wants a password to connect to the 2000 box. Whenever I try accessing the 98 box it shows it in network neighborhood, but when I double click it, it says not available. Both are using same workgroup name. Would like to know how to access it without a password, and why it keeps saying unavailable.

Log onto the Win98 box using the same credentials (username and password) of the Win2K box. Of course, I am assuming that they are both in the same workgroup.

I got it to work. Had to change to shared level security instead of user level. Couldn't get it to work on both through user level, only one of them.
