There is a similar problem between Windows NT and Windows 95. There
exists a solution by changing the Registry settings for Windows NT. 
Go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\Rdr

Under Rdr create a key named Parameters and in Parameters create a DWORD
value named EnablePlainTextPassword and give it a value of 1.
So finally:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\Rdr\Parameters will
have a DWORD value  EnablePlainTextPassword with value 1.

Reboot the system and u can log on from Windows NT. This might work for
Windows 98. Otherwise search the Microsoft's KnowledgeBase.
