    Windows 2000 shared drives

    I have been happily sharing folders and a printer between a Windows 98 and a Windows XP PC for some time. However, since I recently upgraded the Windows 98 PC to 2000 neither PC has been able to see the others' shares. I used my knowledge of 98 and XP to check some settings to no avail. Any suggestions?

    Can you see the other computer at all?
