Network Share Unaccessible



I have a network of three computers, two running windowsxp and one running
windows98. Networking between all three is okay except for one of the XPs.
This XP,\\ACER_PENT, can see every other computer's shares and read them.
However when I attempt to access the shares of the \\ACER_PENT from either
of the other two computers I get a message that \\ACER-PENT <filename> is
not accessible. The shares show up on My Network Places, but when I attempt
to access I get the not accessible message.

What could the problem be on \\ACER_PENT?

TIA
