Hello!
Thanks for the reply DoC but I already found the solution elsewhere. My answer to
all of your questions was 'yes' since the LAN was working fine when my computer was
on Windows NT. I also made sure all the usernames and passwords were already in
the Win2k server.
The problem was that I did not install NETBIOS nor NETBEUI since I did not intend
to use them at all (which I found out that I was wrong!). I found out that when
you want to LAN together Windows 98/95 computers and Windows 2K computers, all of
them should turn on NETBIOS or NETBEUI. I prefer NETBIOS since it seems to perform
faster than NETBEUI.
Well, that's it!
