I'm trying to get a win98 machine to connect to an XP Pro incoming connection, but all I get is either a cannot log into domain, or username/password invalid. Any thoughts? And can I bridge between the incoming connection and my ethernet? Thanks!

Are dialing into a server or another desktop machine?

You need PCAnywhere if you want to dial into a desktop.

You can set up XP to allow remote desktop access, then download the client from http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/pro/downloads/rdclientdl.asp

install it on your 98 machine and then you can connect to your xp machine. You'll either need to know your IP number, or utilize a service like no-ip.com
