Cannot view other computers on the net work.

This is a strange problem. I cannot see another computer
on my network. However, others can see and access shared
resources on my computer. I'm running on Win XP, others
running Win 98. We are on the same subnet and I did run
the network setup disk on those computers. Anybody got
idea how to make my computer to be able to view and
access other sysytems?

Be sure all computers are using the same Protocol.
XP likes to use IPX/SPX over the other choices.

All the computers are running TCP/IP with no Novell
IPX/SPX running at all. This is why it is kind of strange
for me not be able to view other computers but they can
access my computer.

All I can tell you is try it.
My home network will not work without IPX/SPX.

I guess a little explanation is needed here,
TCP/IP is your Internet Provider connection,
IPX/SPX is your local network connection. (the Protocol)
You need both of them.
