Mac OS 10.2 has built in capabilities to mount normal windows file shares (and share files with windows users). On the Windows side, set up a network share of some kind.

For Mac connecting to PC share:
Click on the Go menu, Connect to Server, type smb://123.123.123.123/sharename OR smb://computer_name/sharename
Enter username/pass

On the Mac side, set up a network share. Somewhere in the Sharing or Network control panels you will find a checkbox that will allow PC users access to that share. Make sure that's checked and try mapping the network drive in Windows however you normally do it.
