I recently set up a home network (1xp and 1 98)but cannot
see the other computer on the network. I can ping it, and
bits sent and received show data transmission, but i get
a "network unavailable" error message. Help please
 
check that the built in firewall on XP is turned off.
Also, check that there is no other 3rd party firewall
software installed on either machine.If there is, try
disbling it while you test the network then configure it
to allow LAN IP's through.Also check that the IP
addresses and subnet masks are on the same subnet.
