I would check the firewall first. If this is not issue, check the permission. this link may help,

Thank you - firewall not an issue. Moved folder to public folder and it makes
it accessible. However, I am trying to sync an access database and although I
have tried many things, including SyncToy - the changes I make to either
computers database will not be synced with the other. very frustrating!
