How can I completely open up the security on Windows 2000 so any computer on
my network can read it. Security is not an issue on my network, and one
Windows 98 computer needs to get to my Windows 2000 computer. This seems
nearly impossible to set up.

Thanks for any help.

Right-click on the folders you want to share and enable sharing.
 
Greetings --

You'll likely get better responses by restricting your post to
only relevant newsgroups.

If security isn't an issue, you may not want to use Win2K. To
minimize Win2K's security, use only FAT32 partitions.

Enable the guest account on the Win2k machine, then share the
folders/drive you wish the other computer to see.
