I have 2000 Pro sharing a folder and security is set for all users.

I have a user setup on the 2000 machine in the administrator group.

I log on to the Win 98 machine with this user's name and password, but I
cannot see the share on the Win 2000 machine.

Any ideas of what I need to do to fix this?

Thanks.

Make sure the win98 pc is part of the same workgroup that
the win2k pc is. Also, make sure share name is less than
8 characters. If there is no WINS server available, add
an entry to each pc's LMHOSTS file for the other pc. It
should help with name resolution.
