networking xp to 98

C

CHRIS MOORE

I can not get my Home XP to link with the network. I know
the network wiring is fine and the connection is fine, but
I am on a LAN where the HUB is connected to the internet.
That works fine. At one point I had the XP model seeing
all other 98 computers and could print, but then I
couldn't get on the internet. After playing with the
protocol properties, I can now get on the internet and
print, but can not see other computers, except the
computer attached to the printer, nor can I share software
from a station computer we use as the "server". This is a
peer to peer network. Please help.
