    You need a piece of software called Samba, which will make your linux box look like a Windows PC and enable you to export shares visible to Windows.

    I think Mandrake comes pre installed with Samba. If it is you could probably use Swat to configure it. If not you can always pick up and install the necessary RPM's.
