What kind of server?  A real server or just a computer that is an internet
gateway?  Has it ever connected to the internet?  I'd check the settings for
the dns server in your network properties on the Win98 machine.  You could
get the true dns numbers for a site ( 64.234.24.20 is CNN) and type those
into your browser and see if it connects.  If it does then your dns server
settings are wrong.  If it doesn't your server if not allowing the computer
access.  Do you have internet sharing software?
