I'm working on a Core Duo iMac today, and would like to connect to my hard drive on my Macbook. On my Macbook, I see the iMac and am able to mount the drives and folders just fine.

However, when on the iMac if I go to connect to the Macbook, even using the afp:// address, the connection just times out. I have File Sharing, etc turned on to no avail. I've turned off the airport on my Macbook and have a straight ethernet connection. I am sharing the Airport internet to the Macbook via the Ethernet and that works just fine... What's the hangup?
