This problem often happens, but today I couldn't remember or
find again how I change or create an User Name and Password in
Windows 98 [SE] Logon and Networking. Could you recall us? TIA,

snip

at logon screen type in new user name and password ...it will create a login
file *.pwl

to change passwords , logon as user you want to change and go to control
panel password and change current password

Thanks for the quick reply.

I had "Log on automatically at system startup" checked in
TweakUI \Logon, so I unchecked it, OK, and rebooted.

But at next boot, something did appear, but just a fraction of a
second, so I wasn't able to recognize if it is the Logon Screen,
still less to enter something.

I retried 2 more times, and at the 3 boots I got same result.

Meanwhile, in TweakUI \Logon I changed the "User name",
but how do I know the current name, so to see if my change
has been applied?"

use the logon name and password of the win98 machine
to create a user of the same name on the XP machine...
you should then have permission...

Subject: XP SP2 and 98SE Network

I just recently purchased a new computer with Windows XP SP2 and
connected it to my Microsoft MN-100 wired router using a cable
modem to connect to the internet. I then connected my old
computer, which uses Windows 98 SE, to the router as well. I
can connect to the internet on both machines, check e-mail using
Outlook Express and each can function fine. I shared the entire
C:\ on the 98SE computer in an effort to copy some files to the
new XP computer. In My Network Places on the XP, I can see the
C:\ of the 98SE, and I transferred the files over to the XP.

However, when I share a directory on the XP computer, I cannot
"see" it on the 98SE computer. When I attempt to Find Computer
or Files on the 98SE, the computer takes a very long time and
then returns with No Files Found.

Also, the 98SE does not "see" the new Epson Photo Printer that I
just installed on the new XP computer. The 98SE will be located
in my son's room, and I suppose he could just save his work and
then go to the XP computer to copy, and or print it, but I would
like to try and fix it.

Any thoughts or suggestions on how to resolve these two issues?

Thanks for the quick reply.
