home networking....

[Ron]

I have a desktop computer that I have running Kubuntu 6.06 and a laptop that I 
have running Windows XP.  I have a number of files on my desktop that I would 
like to be able to view on my XP machine.  I heard that this was possible, 
but I have no idea how I would go about setting this up.  Could someone 
please explain, in detail, how I would go about doing this?  I am relatively 
new to Linux and completely new to Kubuntu and KDE.

TIA,

Ron
