I don't know much about linux, but you need some setup called Samba.
Do a google for samba and file sharing with xp. I'm sure you'll find something.

I just use FTP, much easier to setup 
Use YaST to install Samba. Make sure NFS is installed as a module or built in your kernel.
I don't remember if you can configure samba through YaST though. you might have to edit the config by hand.

Have a look at this doc perhaps it will help!
YaST has a full blown samba client/server configuration. Check under KDE Control Center / YAST / Network Services.
