Oh man...im tired of this. I have 3 computers in my house plus mine all connected to a Linksys 5 port hub. All of the machines are running 98 except me, Im running win2k Pro. The cable modem is attached to my PC and Im using sygate to share the net.

Anyways...now for the problem. If I go on any of the win98 boxes and goto network neighboorhood and double click on my computer name it says Please Enter the password to CC300120-B/IPC$

I have no idea what this IPC is..but I found it being shared under Computer management and I cant change any options for it..and I dunno the password.

How can I get on the win98 boxes and open up my computer from them so I can share my drives with them.?

The Win2k Computer has to have accounts for all the win9x boxes. The name on the accont and password have to be the same as what is used to log on locally at the Win9x box.
