Have you tried pinging from each box to the other? You should do this
first to establish a definite connection between them over the network.

Assuming this is ok you can setup a share very easily using SWAT. You
can do this from the linux box - point your browser at
http://localhost:901 - or froma Windows box - point your browser at
http:<ip address of linux box>:901 .

SWAT has some pretty good help files built in.
