I believe this is correct, and I know someone will correct me if I'm wrong...
You need a crossover cable to do the direct connection between the two NICs. I believe patch and crossover are the same, but it's been years since I've messed with this...
I don't think 98 can see XP, but XP should be able to see 98, so you'll have to initiate the transfer from the XP machine as a download, not the 98 machine as an upload. Just share the drives/directories you want to copy over so you can see them from XP. Put the computers in the same workgroup to see them in Network Neighborhood.
