ok, I have 2 seperate yet related issues. First off, I have 3 computers, A,B, and C. All computers have shared documents.

Issue 1:Computer B can see all but ONE shared folder on Computer A.

Issue 2: Computer B was able to transfer files from Computer C to Computer A, but Computer A cannot see or access any of the files from Computer C. Computer A has complete see/access to the files moved too.

I hope this makes sense. Has anyone ran into something like this before? I have no idea where to start.

User accounts need to exist on all pcs with matching passwords or the guest accounts need to be enabled on all.

Sharing should be to everyone with no restrictions.

Software firewalls on each need to be configured to allow sharing access

check these.
