How can I Network XP pro with a MAC

[[email protected]]

Is there any way to network a drive on a XP machine to a Macintosh? I know with Windows NT server, you could create a MAC Voulume. I know there is no XP server, but can you create a MAC Volume on XP Pro? Any help is greatly appreciated.

A friend of mine did this, with a Win98 box. I'm sure it is similar in XP. He used a Shareware/Freeware utility(don't know the name) to setup a FTP server on the Win98 box and a FTP client on the Mac. I'd check download.com or some other site and try to find a FTP util.
Maybe someone will post more.

I didn't know about a Mac volume. That would have been useful info for me a few weeks ago.

I ended up going the FTP route. On OSX you can easily setup ftp access w/o any 3rd party apps. and to connect to the pc from the mac you can create a SMB:// reference to the shared pc location.
