Accessing a shared printer on WIN2K from WIN98

L

lanrover56

I am sharing this local (LPT1) attached printer on a PC
with WIN2K and I am attempting to access it to install as
a network printer on a WIN98 PC. I attempted through a
workgroup environment as well as a domain environment.
The results are all the same. I get this window on the
WIN98 PC like this...

\\WS1\IPC$ then asking for a password.

Please assist / explain.

Create an account on your Win2000 machine with the same name and password
as you use when you log on to your Win98 machine.

Best regards

Bjorn
