I have installed a Windows XP computer on a netware
network. I can not see a printer (or computer) that is
being shared on a 98 computer. Other XP machines print
to this printer just fine. I am using Microsoft's file
and print sharing. All the computers are in the same
workgroup.

Thanks,
Mike

Once you can see the Win98 system you should be able to see the printer.
Make sure you have common network protocols installed.
