You would use samba to share files over a linux / windows network. Would advise reading up on it. Basically involves installing samba on your linux machine, adding users you want to share with and then configuring your /etc/samba/smb.conf file to list the directories you want to share.

That's very broad I know but it's been a while and I'm away from my LAN right now ...
