I have had these same problems and tried different things. My first attempt to get
my XP and 98 machines talking was using strictly TCP/IP. They would not talk even
after checking all settings multiple times. NETBeui didn't work either yet. There
must be a way to make them work though I haven't found this yet. I have been able
to get things working using IPX/SPX (Netware compatible protocol), though this is
a higher overhead protocol.
