Question about 'How to Share Files through Windows XP's Internet Connection Firewall'

I have a question about How to Share Files through Windows XP's Internet Connection Firewall:

I followed your steps but I ran into a problem. I have one machine with WinXP and another machine with Win98. I am networking them together via the Linksys Cable/DSL router. The one with XP can 'talk' with the one with 98, but the one with 98 can't talk with the one with XP. When I disable the firewall, they can talk fine. The ports you mentioned in the article didn't apply to this situation. Are there more ports I can use or what? Please HELP! Thanks Matt Please note: When I say talk, I mean share files, etc.
