I had this same issue last week .. and I got it working. However, there were
no win98 boxes involved. All win2k here on the network involved. From an
NT/win2k standpoint, you need to make sure the apache service is running
with a network login (on the machine the apache is running on, of course).

1. stop apache
2. change the Login to some network logon that has already been given the
proper permissions to access directories read/write/etc.
3. restart apache

I also suggest mapping the drive that you are trying to access over the
network so you can use a "local" path, such as R:\shareddir.

If the files you need to access are on a win98 box, then I guess just make
sure the dir is shared. You can still map to that share also. The main thing
is to make sure the apache service is running as a network logon that was
setup on the machine you are trying to access.

I hope this helps some what. If you can, look back at some past posts to
this group that were around sometime last week. I posted there the steps I
took to getting this to work. Again,  no win98 machines involved, though. So
.. i dunno ...

good luck,
