And we can assume that you have a "share" identified on the W2K box.

Are the W98 and W2K in the same "NT" domain/workgroup? Does your W98 user have access to the share on the W2K box? (W2K is even more careful when it comes to security than NT4, by building on the NT4 model.)

Like the previous answer make sure both systems are in the same workgroup. Disable browse master on the 98 box and if you are going to access shares on the W2K system make sure there is an account on the W2K box that matches the userID and password used on the 98 system. (the account thing will probably help in the browsing too)
