This is a discussion about Network Issues in the Everything New Technology category; I have 2 computers networked, 1 is win 2k Pro, and the other is Windows 98. Whenever I try to access the 98 machine from the 200o one I get a message saying The acount is not authorized to log in from this station.

I have 2 computers networked, 1 is win 2k Pro, and the other is Windows 98. Whenever I try to access the 98 machine from the 200o one I get a message saying "The acount is not authorized to log in from this station". I cannot get the 98 machine to access the 2000 machine because it cannot find the share, it always wants to use IPC$
 
I am using netbui to connect the two together, and have never seen this issue before.
 
 
Any help would be greatly appricated

This has been covered in the forums quite a bit. May I recommend searching the forums for numerous answers.
 
The basic jist of it is to
 
install Microsoft Client on the 98 machine and to create a user account on the 2000 machine for the 98 client to log into. If not that, then you may enable Guest access on the 2000 machine.
