Just need to mount the share now in linux to access it from ubuntu to windows.

Code:
mkdir /mnt/WindowsShare


then

Code:
mount -t smbfs //WindowsBoxName/sharename /WindowsShare -o username=mywindowsusername,password=mywindowspassword


That should mount Windows XP share in folder WindowsShare. But rebooting/logging out of ubuntu will reset it. To make the Mount Perma you have to edit fstab file adding the line..

Code:
mount -t smbfs //WindowsBoxName/sharename /WindowsShare -o username=mywindowsusername,password=mywindowspassword 0 0
