Want direct dialup access to my LAN

Hi.
I have a Win 98 computer that I want to use on the road to dialup my
Win XP Home computer that is connected to my LAN.
The LAN is via a DSL modem router combo.
When I dailup I am asked for the username, password and domain.
For username and password, I use the same as I use to log ont Win XP.
Is this correct?
What do I use for domain?
Where do I find the is domain name/number?
When I do an ipconfig on the answering computer, I get:
Connection-specific DNS Suffix : domain_not_set.invalid
Is that okay? or can/should I set it? How?
Once set, is that the domain I use to login from dialup?

Thanks,
Harvey
