samba problem


Hello, I'm having some trouble with a winxp box trying to connect to samba(installed in my slack box), Ive configured the smb.conf file and seems to be ok, but how do I connect to samba from winxp.

My winxp box is sharing the internet connection via Ethernet card to the linux box, I've only those 2 computers, the linux pc gets its IP via DHCP and the win pc has a static IP.
