Remote Access Fm XP - 98SE

I have 2 PCS one running XP Pro and the other one running
Win 98. I am able to use the remote access feature on Win
98 PC to access the PC running XP Pro (After installing
the RA feature fm the Win XP CD) but while trying the
other way round the PC with XP pro is unable to do the
same. It generates an error message saying the remote
access might not be enabled on the other PC. How do u
enable remote access on Win98 and is it possible to
remote access it from a Win XP running PC

If I understand correctly, you're using XP's Remote Desktop
capability, and you've installed the Remote Desktop client on Win 98.

Win 98 can only be a Remote Desktop client. It can't host a Remote
Desktop session, so it isn't possible for another computer to access
Win 98 using Remote Desktop. For that, you need a third party
program, such as RealVNC:
