98/2000/xp network

[Mark]

Help small network with 98/2000/xp machines. The 2000
machine denys access. All other machines are fine and 2000
machine can access 98/xp machines. I have even set 2000
machine so no password is needed to login. Still nothing.
I reloaded 2000 on the machine still nothing. Can't find
any online help or book help

Try setting your workstations up as users on the 2000 machine. Works
for me.
