On Win 2k, you select a folder you want to share on the network and you
right-click it and go to Properties/Sharing. You should be able to take
it from there. On XP it is much more difficult to do it properly. But you
first must take XP out of Simple File Sharing. Look it up on Google, and
when you take it out of SFS on XP, then follow the same procedure as you
did on Win 2k. If you make the user-id and psw the same on both machines,
then you will not have to logon to the other machine.

You're behind the router but it's best to *harden* the O/S to attack.
