How to get win xp to see a linux share?

Post by Big-Dave »

Hello am running winxp pro on one pc and a version of slackware on another. I am able to acces my windows shares with linux but i can not even see my linux pc with windows. I do have a folder in my home directory on the linux box set up as shared.
