OS X file sharing

[eric]

All sharing is enabled on my Macs, I can share between them just fine. Again, 
I see them when I click on samba share, but once I open the icons there is 
nothing there. 

If I try to connect vis FTP or SSH, which also shows up under Remote 
Places>Network Service, I get the following error "Unknown host 
my-computer.local".

I do have zero configure on as well.
