The easiest way might be to just to install this program called "WinSCP" (see
link below):
http://winscp.net/eng/index.php
on the Windows XP machines. This program allows the Windows machines to upload
and download files through the SSH port on the Solaris server using either SFTP
(my preferred way of doing it) or via SCP (slightly more complicated way of
doing it, it gets very complicated if the Windows client is behind a firewall).
Each user can have their own directory in /export/home on he Solaris file
server and they can upload and download files to their /export/home/username
directory using WinSCP. They can also log in to the Solaris server through SSH
and get UNIX shell access to use for C programming and Java programming and web
design and mysql databases other similar things (with Solaris 10 and
OpenSolaris you can give each user root access in their own zone without
compromising overall security of the system and they can have their own Apache
web server and their own Mysql database in their own zone).
