Hi Paul
Oh, just sounded like a small school network :-)
Have you checked that you have basic connectivity between the
non-connecting client and the server? Can you ping one from the other?
Also have you made sure that you are using 'client for microsoft
networks' rather than 'windows logon' for the users to log in with
(sorry it's been a while since I worked with 98 clients and my memory is
a bit fuzzy for the exact names).
Actually if you can get the money to upgrade them to 2k, and they'll run
it, you might find a whole load of stuff easier of course :-)
