Help Please

Desktop named 1, extra internal drive named 2 Z:, laptop named 3, Xbox360, and PS3 all on Network Slippy. 3 shows 2 Z: on network under “My Computer” but not when you click on “Network” If you click on 2 Z: under “my computer” you get the message “2 Z: is not accessible”. But I can play whatever I want on 2 Z: through my xbox360 or ps3? I have went into the 2 Z: properties and tried changing permissions etc… , but no where do I see 3. I can access 3 thru 1, and vice versa, does any of this make sense? I know there is something simple I am forgetting, but I don’t know what? Any good ideas?

 

Successful Sharing involves some general consideration in Network settings, http://www.ezlan.net/sharing.html

As well as specific adjustment of each computer according to what it is allowed to be shared.
