I have two computers I am tring to network together, one with Windows98 and the other with WindowsXP home edition. I can not see either computer in Network Nieghborhood or My Network Places. I have checked all the protocols and file sharing. I can not find them when I do the computer search. I have pinged each computer and I recieve a reply from each computer. I also see activity on the hub when I try to access them.

Yes, I have. I am wondering if it is a setup problem in XP.
