Can Win9x Access Vista Shares Using LM Authentication?

I'm trying, unsuccessfully, to get Windows 98 Second Edition to access
Vista's Ultimate's shared folders, and I'd like to know if anyone has
a solution.

On Vista Ultimate, I followed the steps that Michael A. Bishop (MSFT)
gave in his "Vista & Samba" reply to allow LM and NTLM authentication.
Then, I rebooted Vista and:

1. I logged into Vista and 98SE using the same user name and password.

2. On 98SE, I typed the Vista's computer name in the Start > Run box
in this format:

\\computer

I expected 98SE to authenticate with Vista using LM and show Vista's
shared folders. However, Vista rejected the credentials provided by
98SE, which caused 98SE to display a prompt for the password for the
resource "\\Computer\IPC$".

Is it possible to access Vista's shared folders from 98SE using LM
authentication?
