X and networking question

[Jack Honeycutt]

Hello all...

I have a networking question that I hope someone can point me to a correct 
answer to, or maybe a web page with more info....

I have a external DSL modem plugged into a Linksys 8 port 
DSL/hub/router/firewall.  One of the ports has my XP Pro box plugged into 
it.  The other 5 ports are plugged into my Macs (Color Classic, Performa 
575, IIci and my G4. I am running Jaguar 10.2.8 on my G4 Mac.  All the 
machines share the DSL and work fine in regards to surfing, and sending and 
receiving email.

About all I want to do network wise, is pull into my G4, some movie 
(Quicktime, DV, and AVI) files from my XP Pro box.  I don't need to move 
stuff onto the windows box from the G4.  All I want to do is access some 
big move files on the XP Pro box, and move them, via the network, to the G4 
machine.

I assume I need to turn file sharing on in the XP Pro box.(?).  In Jaguar, 
in the utilities folder, I found "Networking" but could not  figure out how 
to use it to help me pull down files from the XP Pro box.

Is the Networking icon where I want to start in trying to figure this out, 
or am I way off?

A point in the right direction would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

PS:  I have dropped out of many Mac email lists because of the fighting and 
rudeness that goes on.  I like this group because it is friendly.  I think 
folks here are kind and respectful to others.  I hope it continues to be so.
