.d.z.a,

        What you need is Samba ( http://www.samba.org ) . If you run Samba
on your Linux box, you will be able to see filesystems / directories on
your Linux box on your WinXX machines. Note that this will NOT work if you
have a dual boot system - i.e. your Linux and WinXX OS's run on the same
physical hardware. But from your description, that doesnt sound to be the
case.

Regards,
Kenneth
