file sharing between MAc and PC (again)

Newbie question, i came across this question already, but it never understood the answers :(. To spilt my cable modem i got bought a linksys router and i hooked up a XP box and a MAc G4. Works great. Now i want to share files from my MAc to my PC. So what im trying is to open my mac HD on the PC and (pref) visa versa. How can i do this..?! First my knowlegde about configuring Routers, TCP/IP's or DHCP's is zero (null). I tried several options talked about in this great forum, but i never got far. Is there anyone outhere that can tell me more step by step how to acomplish this (people like Weed seem very knowledgable :))
I thank u people very much, and i hope to hear back from one of u. regards

thank you for the quick responds. its sounds really easy..but Its not working. Let me explain what i did. My shared docs on the PC are at 192.168.1.100. My MAC run on 192.168.1.101. If i use "connect to.." on the MAc and fill out server: 192.168.1.100. it tells me " no response from server". Should i config something in the linksys? thank you.
