Help!

I have a windows 98 machine that connects to a Windows 2000 domain. I
am trying to print to a windows XP shared printer. The XP machine is
NOT on the domain.
The user of the Windows 98 has a user account set up on the XP machine
and I can see the XP machine in the network neighborhood. However when
I try to connect to this printer it asks me for a password. Does
anyone have ANY idea what is going on. Does the XP machine need to be
on the domain too??

One other thing, the 98 machine used to be able to print to this
printer before the 98 machine was put on the domain.

MANY MANY THANKS!

Make sure the password that they use to logon to the Windows 98 machine is
the same username and password that was created for the user account on the
Windows XP machine.

Thank you!
