"Access Denied" when opening foler on Mounted NTFS volume

G

Guest

I have a small, 3 computer network setup.
On computer 1, I mounted a external hard drive to V:\ExtStorage, where V:\
is already an NTFS external hard drive. On this computer, I can acess all of
the folders and files (open, delete, copy, etc.).
However, when I try to get to the mounted volume from either Computer 2 or
Computer 3, I can open the mounted drive and see all of the folders there.
However, if I try to open any of the folders, it says "Access Denied."

(All computers use Win XP Home).

I tried setting permsissions through safe mode and nothing work.

Any thoughts?
