Trouble with network printer and login

1) WHen i start my computer i have to hit enter for
the "Microsoft Netowork...", how can i get rid of that,
so it just automatically logs in?

2) I am trying to network my PSC 2110V Printer
(Multifunction HP). How do I do so on my 98 Machine?
And how can i network the printer for the 98 computer to
the XP Machine?

Go to Control Panel | Network and set the primary network logon to
Windows Logon. Reboot, and log on with a user name and no password.
It won't ask for a logon again.

Open the Printers folder, right click the printer, and share it. The
XP machine should automatically detect and install 98's shared
printer.

Thanks man, i am just wondering how to do it on XP. I
installed SP1 finally, after finally getting my update
utility fixed (problem with IE). When i restart i have
to click to log in. i tried to do the same thing with XP
like 98, but i cant find the thing to do so...any
suggestions other than: www.careyholzman.com/netfixes.htm

That's odd. Didn't you see the tips, such as #33 which specifically tell you
how to get rid of the network login prompt as you asked? or the tips in the
network setup section that explain the process for printer sharing?
