Oh man, there's a trick to it, Win2000 and WinXP have encrypted passwords from what I remember so they can't interface with Win98/Win95 machines directly. There is a one line patch I recall seeing, I just can't remember it. Try searching Microsoft sites for file sharing and put XP/98 as the environments. I think Win95/98 uses plain text and the later generations use encrypted, you just have to set the flag to one of the other on all machines and it will work.
