network password help

01-21-2004, 01:34 AM

I upgraded my server to XP, but now my laptop is asking
for network password...I don't recall ever setting one up
and have tried all my usuals. Is there a way around this
to reset or allow me to log on to my server from my laptop?
As it is I cannot even access my printer from my laptop
going through my server. This password issue has got me
stopped. Any ideas? My laptop is running windows 98.

IIRC you need an identical account on both machines.
