Help with ICS and sharing hard drives

[86plymouthcolt]

It was simple to set up ICS between my AMD ("box1") and Intel ("box2").

Box1 is the host and both boxes can connect to the net with no problem.

Now I would like to share the hard drives--that's giving me headaches!

Box2 is able to access drives on the host, but the host cannot access the client drives.

This wouldn't be an issue with my router, but it died.

Any suggestions?

And OS is?

Sorry...both run XP pro

Important: For the propose of the initial setting, disable all software Firewall (including WinXP native
ICF); disable any active Virus scan or any other utility that might intercept Network Traffic.
