Question about 'Getting Network Neighborhood to recognize newly attached computers'

WinXP & Win98 File Sharing using IPX/SPX:

I have an XP and win98 computer connected in a simple network. I have Internet access on both and can share files/printers using TCP/IP. I've followed the XP help instructions for changing the file sharing protocol to IXP/SPX (On XP: install NWLink IPX/SPX/NetBIOS and under advanced, click off TCP/IP for file sharing) (On win98: del Microsoft File Sharing, add IPX/SPX protocol and NetWare File Sharing service).

Problem: win98 adding of NetWare File Sharing also installs "Client for Netware Networks", which doesn't seem to have share-level access, only user-level access (and wants a for list of users and/or groups with permissions.) Anyway, now computers can't share files (tho both still have internet access).

At a loss from where to go from here. Any advice?
