Network Problem

I am trying to setup a network between a Win98 and a WinME.
I created a Home Network Setup Disk with the WinME but
when I try to use it on the Win98 I get a error message
that says,"This operation has been cancelled due to
restrictions in effect on this computer.Please contact
your system administrator." Also, when I click on My
Network Places and then Entire Network it says "Unable to
browse the network. The network is not accessible. For
more information, look in the help index at the
topic 'Network Troubleshooter'." Both computers use the
same broadband connection to the internet though and that
works fine.

Any ideas?????

There's no need to run the Wizard. Make the Win98 network settings
manually in Control Panel | Network.

A common reason for inability to browse the network is that the user
isn't logged on. Is there a logon prompt when Win98 starts? If so,
don't cancel it. Complete the logon by entering a user name and,
optionally, a password. If there's no logon prompt, click Start | Log
Off or Start | Shut Down | Close all programs... and log back on. If
that makes network browsing work properly, the most likely fix is to
go to this registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\
Network\Real Mode Net

and delete the value named "AutoLogon", as shown here:
