If the Win98 machine is the one with the modem, then you need to look at 
Win98 sites for info on connection sharing!  I believe you just set the YDL 
machine up to use the Win98 as the router and DNS:

Say the Win98 machine has the IP: 192.168.1.1
The YDL machine has the following network settings:

IP: 192.168.1.2
SubnetMask: 255.255.255.0
Router: 192.168.1.1
DNS: 192.168.1.1

I have no idea how to setup Win98 for connection sharing.  The info above 
is based on my system which has a Linux box acting as a router/gateway.
