I run a server at home for centralized storage. It started out as a Win2k machine, then upgraded to Win2k server, just because I was able to bring a copy home from work. You can just use "sharing" to have a central storage area. I've done that for many small 2-4 machine/user networks. It's easy and simple. Win98 will need some adjustments from Win2k/WinXP using the home networking disk, but that's very easy to complete with the floppy that gets created.

I did find that when I turned on Active Directory in my home network that it slowed it down considerably so I disabled it. Good luck!
