Connections? (easy question)

We are building a SQL Server/MSDE application with VB6 using ".udl" files to setup connections.

We have the following on our Novell network:

W2K Computers running SQL Server Developer Edition (each with 1+ database)
W2K & W98 Computers running a MSDE database (the mdf and service is local)
W2K & W98 Computers without any databases that we WANT to connect.

How do we get the computers set up to see each others databases? We (sometimes) see the available servers in the drop down in the udl file but the login does not work.

Are we missing some client setup? How do the "Client Network Utility" and the "Server Network Utility" need to be set up?

Thanks!
