Accessing external drive via my network

I'm trying to figure out how to access my external drive via my network.
My system consists of a 20" core 2 iMac and 2 G4 PowerBooks, all linked
via an Apple Airport Express. The external drive is connected to the iMac.
I can access the iMac via my network from either of my PowerBooks just
fine, but the external drive isn't showing. I do have file sharing activated.
Is there a way I can access the external drive through the iMac from the
PowerBooks? It seems like it should be possible, but all my fiddling around
hasn't achieved this.
Any thoughts?
