Networking in one way only

Hi there. I am Mike and this is first time I am asking for help here. I have small home network and a problem with it. One computer is running Windows XP Professional and another one is running Windows 98 SE. Both computers are connected via router and are working fine except that networking is working in one way only. I can access Win 98 computer from Win XP but not the other way around. Do you have any suggestion for me?

Hello Mike and welcome. Windows XP and Windows 98 are from different worlds (so to speak) and they have very different networking model. To be able to solve your problem with one way networking only you will have to enable guest account on Windows XP computer and to create account that has username and password equivalent to the username and password you are using to log on Windows 98 computer.
