OK so I am running 7 or 8. Is there a way to disable that network
password deal so my XP machines or presumably other w/7 machines can
see it without jumping through those hoops?


I don't want to make assumptions concerning your issue, so, can you
elaborate a bit more on the issue you're having?

I know 7 has serious problems seeing a W/98 machine.


That it does.


The 7 machine has no problem using my XP shares but it looks like I
need some kind of password to get from the XP machine to the 7
machine.
