New to Linux! How can I get my XP Pro machine to see the Linux box on the network??

I just installed Mandrake 8.1 on a PII 400 that I am going to use as a server for my mp3s and as a print sharing machine. The Linux box is connected to my router and I can browse the internet from the linux box but I don't know how to access it from my XP Pro machine. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

During loadup it said it was installing Samba and SSH, but I don't know how to do anything in Linux so I am not even sure how to start SAmba, SSH, or do anything except click around like an idiot. Thanks

Ill take that as a question. For ssh visit openssh.com. They will have more than enough information for you. networksimplicity.com/openssh/ for an openssh client for Windows. As far as samba, you have samba.org to get information from. linuxdoc.org probably has how-to's for both! Find a restroom and get to reading 🙂
