Hi pradeep,
This is very easy to do.First install NIC driver on your all win98 clients.Set the ip address of each of client. in win98 computer go to run and enter winipcfg.Select a valid NIC and according to NIC ipaddress will be appear.Click on my control pannel of your 98 computer go to Network neighbourhood and enter ip address and default gateway and give the workgroup name same as win2k computer.reboot the system and your computer is in workgroup....
Please acknowledge me ....
Bye
