Aight 2 of my computers have different OS installed. One is on Windows 2000 Pro and the other one is Win 98SE. I can access the files on win98 from the win2000 but when i want to access any files on win2000 from win98, it asks me for a PW. I know I haven't set any PW to any of the folders. When I open up network neighborhood, I see my comp and the other comp listed there. When I double click on that comps icon, it asks me to provide a PW. Any help?
