I have 2 Win98 SE boxes on an NT domain which is all masq'd. I've never had
a problem with them. There were no special options I needed to set. After
the nic drivers, the services, and the TCP/IP is configured, all works fine.
You need to manually set the IP, netmask, default gateway, and DNS settings
in the TCP/IP settings for your network card, or use DHCP on your network.
I prefer the latter as it is much easier to manage as your internal network
grows.
You can do a 'ipconfig /all' from a DOS prompt to help you find out what
isn't set properly.
