The Great Shared Directory Dilemma

I have one computer that runs linux all the time and one that can be 
booted into linux or windows.  I installed samba on the full time linux 
box.  That way it could talk to the windows install.  There are several 
programs out there that make configuring samba easier on a linux box.  I 
remember most of what I did to set it up, but I don't think I would be 
able to give you directions.  I'm sure others on the list will be able 
to help with more details.
