Basicaly you have to install drivers for the file system you use (run "mount"). Google for some drivers, then read up on how they work. I think the general consensus is that for the two to talk together, the best way (still) is to share a FAT partition between them.
Technically, this belongs in General since it's not actually a Linux question. Anyway, if your Linux partitions are EXT2/3 you can use Explore2fs to read the files on them. Not sure if there is any software to let you write to your partitions if you need to. If you're using ReiserFS, I found a similar application called YAReG. There are other applications for Reiser, but this was near the top of the list when I searched with Google. Google is your friend, you know (and also search on LQ as this has been asked frequently).
Ping the Linux machine? they are 2 seperate machines? from your initial post it appeared that you had 2 partitions on the same machine. This is the case?
If so you will need something like Samba to share across the 2 OS'
Yes I did, I named the same MYGroup = window and samba.
Still cannot go inside LINUX box.
The box appear but //path not found.
2 partition ? Nope.
I have 2 computer. (running LAN on INTELinBussines hub/swicth).
I CAN MOUNT WINDOW2000 drive on ANOTHER NETWORK MACHINE TO MY FEDORA DEKSTOP and browse+wipe+copy inside the win2k FOLDER from LINUX MACHINE.
I can do NOTHING from window 2000.
________________________________________________
I WANT TO open/BROWSE (FROM http IF POSSIBLE) the FEDORA shared folder from win2k.

I'd configure all SAMBA configuration, nothing happened on win2k.
Only a dead LINUX box inside NETWORK NEIGHBOURH0OD.
