OK, John, so what is the $IPC problem?

I, too, am having difficulty with a W2K box and a W98 box on a lan. When
they were both W98 machines they communicated just fine. But now I have
formatted the hard drive on one and freshly installed W2K Pro. The W2K
machine is able to fully access the W98 machine, but when I try to access
the W2K machine FROM the W98 machine through network neighborhood the only
option I have is \\(W2K name)\$IPC. I can't seem to be able to confirgure
the W2K machine to let the W98 access it.

Yes, I have enabled file and print sharing. BTW, both machines are attached
to a SMC broadband router. Obviously, I am not a computer pro. Please help.

Thanks in advance,
Bob
