OSX Server Fileshareing was fine

Hello, I am really new to the OS X Server environment, Today one of my servers stopped shareing files. I used to have a drive shared over the network with people able to connect to it. The permissions are all correct. The server no longer lets anyone connect to it in finder. I can Ping it, and see it in finder just cannot connect. Can somone please help me out.

Mac OS X (10.5.8)

Did you check that the file sharing services are still running and haven't stopped (either deliberately or unexpectedly?

Server Admin will tell you the status of your services, along with the associated logs which might provide further clues.
