Win98 can't connect to network resources

I am trying to connect a Win98 machine to a NT4 domain using VPN. I get authenication from the firewall, but I can not map a drive to the resource or browse the network. When I attempt to map a drive, I get prompted for a password to the resource. I supply the domain password, I'm testing with my own network folder, and supply my domain password. That's the only password that exists for this resource. I then get an error message that the password is incorrect. I've even tried supply the administrator password to see if that works and it doesn't. What is confusing me is that I have no trouble setting up VPN on Win2k machines and connecting. We are a non-profit and have never used VPN, no instructions from the firewall installers, so I am making my best guess when setting up clients. Any help is greatly appreciated.
 
searh computers. NG solves the problem...at least that was what i was told but a work around is to search computers and then when the server name comes up double click on it and all the folders appear. works with 2k
