Hi
It depends on how your Network (if you have one) is configured.
If you have Internet connection with a Router that the two computers are
connected to, then it is a matter of configuring the File Sharing.
Make sure that the Software Firewall on each computer allows free local
traffic. If you use 3rd party Firewall On, Vista/XP Native Firewall should
be Off, and the active Firewall has to adjusted to your Network IP numbers
on what is some time called the Trusted Zone (consult your 3rd Party
Firewall instructions.

Otherwise explain what is that you have for Internet connection so we can
have a starting point.
