Question : Networking between Win XP and Fedora Linux PC's.

I have a 8 port LAN switch to which I have connected Win XP (latest service pack) box and and Fedora Core 6 box.

There is router that connects the switch to the Internet. All is working except I do not know how to network Win XP and Linux boxes, I mean what setup I need to run on both so that I can easily see the hard disk content of one PC to from another PC as well easily copy files from one to another  mainly using GUI interface rather than command line.
Also Win Xp is fully protected with McAfee anti-virus software.

Please be specific when providing this solution like exactly what steps needs to be taken.

Hi,

Samba is a nice option. If you just want to move files, then it is better recommended to use the SFTP which is ftp over SSH. WinSCP is a nice SFTP client;
