Is File and Printer Sharing enabled on the Win98 box? Because if you can't share anything, then I bet that it is not enabled. Try turning File and Printer Sharing on.

A portion of the Windows 98 Resource kit is on the W98 SE CD.
In the folder \tools\reskit

The full resource kit (book and CD) can be found in the surplus book rack at many book and computer stores.
(I picked up my copy at Media Play)

I alsobelieve that some of the tools can be downloaded from Microsoft directly.

Make sure file and print sharing is turned on. Also, even if the PCs are logging into a NT domain make they are also a members of the same workgroup. It may sound silly but I have seen it work.
