Hello,
I just installed win2k server and after successfully installing it as standalone i decided to make it a domain controller. What i do is i installed active directory using pre-windows and after successfully installing it and try login usingwin98 it doesn't work it says "The domain password you supplied is not correct or access to your logon server has been denied".

Anybody can help me?

If you follow this recomendation:
http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/en/server/help/default.asp?url=/WINDOWS2000/en/server/help/sag_ADinstallServer.htm
,you must check in addition:
-the user account must be defined in User Manager for Domain with rights to use this Win98 workstation
-in network properties on Win98 check that in indefication tab, workgroup you have enter your domain name
-first logon must be Microsoft client
-in Microsoft Client properties set logon to domain (type here your domain name), also enable obtain a list of users from (type your domain name) and in next screen chose NT domain.
-enable if you want "file and print sharing"
-check TCP/IP properties if you enter corect IP and netmask (use ping to verify).

I already done that. The win98 workstation im using are able to logon to windows NT 4. I check the profiles i am using on windows 2000 server and it says i may log on to all computers. any other idea?

This means that you have two domain controllers?
One old NT and other new Win2k?
I assume that you don't use the same name for domain or user.

You must manually add the user and the computer in Active Directory Users and Computers and manually update DNS with that computer's IP address and host name.
