I need some help getting a win 98 machine to show up on a
xp computer network with a linksys router.

Configure 98's TCP/IP properties to obtain an IP address
automatically. Enable File and Printer Sharing. Share some disks or
folders. That's all that should be needed.

It isn't strictly necessary, but setting 98's workgroup name to be the
same as the workgroup name on the other computers will make networking
a little easier.
