Make sure you have the windows file and printer sharing installed on the network connection in the control panel. Then make sure you right click a folder on XP that you want to share and choose "sharing" and share it.
Probably the easiest way to do it is to run the network wizard on both machines.
Are you connecting through a router or switch or cross-over cable?
