samba is your best bet there, because the protocol is supported by both windows and linux.
You can also set up an FTP daemon to transfer files, but samba would be more seamless.
As for connecting the two pc's with a crossover cable, you'll have to set static ips for both on the same local subnet, like
pc1: 192.168.1.1
pc2: 192.168.1.2
subnet for both machines: 255.255.255.0
with those basic settings, the two should be able to see one another. You can check this by typing ping 192.168.1.3 from pc1.
