FIle sharing weirdness in Win2K

Hey all,

I have file and print sharing on on my home LAN. I used to have 2 WIn98 SE machines, but now the one with the big drives, the scanners, the printers, etc (the server, if you will) is running Win2K. I can see the computer from the network neighborhood on the 98 machine, and I can log in fine (I disabled security stuff, enabled guest, etc...). --And all I get is my printer. None of the folders I share show up. Now, when I check my win2K computer FROM my Win2K computer in the network places, I can see all the folders, and everything is there that I SHOULD see in the Win98 machine. --But all I see on the Win98 machine is my PRINTER. --And I can print to it fine through the network, so I am DEFINITELY connected right. --Also, I CAN see everything shared on the Win98 computer from my Win2K computer.

So, what gives?
