xp has that check box but the external hard drive is attached to the vista computer

hi everyone i have just installed vista beta 2 build 5384 and i have a network problem i currently have two computer on my network. this one that runs vista and another computer that runs xp i have managed to set up a network and both computers see each other. However, before i installed vista i shared a external hardrive that was connected to this computer. But now after enabling share on the external in vista the other computer see the hardrive and can open things but it cant change anything. I cant even add a new folder on the external hard from my xp computer any thought. so basically since the external drive is attached to the vista machine how can i change the settings so that network users can do whatever they want to do on the drive. thanks in advance
