Have you tried using FTP? Just enable it in Sharing under System Preferences.

Re: OX.3 and win 98...
The HP and the iMac are connected to the ...router? What is the OS on your Mac's(Powerbook and iMac)? OS-X work's well with 98se. If their networked, you just need to tell it to connect to the 98se.

In the finder tell it to Go->Connect to server. If it doesn't auto locate it type smb://[ip or comp name]/[drive or shared directory]
This assumes they are on the same network(can ping each other) and that the Mac is 10.x.x[10.2 for the auto locate]
