While this article doesn't specify whether or not Win98 clients will/can
still work, try to disable the NoLMHash policy in Windows Server 2008, just
to get it to work. You know the issues, I know I don't need to tell you to
upgrade the clients.

Client computers may not work correctly when you add a Windows Server
2008-based domain controller to an existing pre-Windows Server 2008 domain
