Home networking using DSL modem, Linksys wireless

I'm using three computers in a home network. Two PC's
using Windows 98SE and one Toshiba Satellite A35S159
laptop with Windows XP connected to the Internet via
Westell DSL modem and from the modem to a Linksys Wireless-
G Broadband Router model WRT54G.
The two desktops are connected by Ethernet cables and the
laptop via a built-in 802.11g wireless LAN.
Let's call one desktop T-Bird, one Phoenix, and the laptop
Toshiba.
Phoenix can "see" all three. Toshiba can see Phoenix.
T-Bird doesn't see any when clicking on "Network
Neighborhood."
On the T-Bird I've clicked on "My Computer">C:>Sharing and
when clicking on "Share As" and keying in T-Bird>OK a
message comes up, "SHARING:You have created a shared
resource, but have not given anyone permission to use it.
Do you want to add user permission now?" Yes No
When I click yes, a red X comes up with: "SHARING: You
cannot view the list of users at this time. Please try
again later. OK" When I try again later the same thing
happens.
When one is set up with the DSL and Router the
instructions in the router guide simply asks that the
Internet protocol TCP/IP is set to select "Obtain an IP
address automatically" and the configuration is completed.
Is it possible something is wrong with the PC T-Bird or is
there something that I'm overlooking? All computers get
on the Internet okay, but don't want to share files or
printing.
Thanks for any suggestions.
