have you configured both devices on the same subnet?
And How do you want them to talk to each other?

If you want to access shares on the ubuntu machine then you need an SMB client/server installed which allows you to share folders. Use a Package Manager or Apt-Get to install it.
What is the Ubuntu system running as a service for Windows ?
Have you checked to insure that the filewall on the Ubuntu system is off ?
@rsvijay  - Thanks and I hope networking is working smoothly.
