You need to make your Linux computer as a server by using Samba.
http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/...oneServer.html
If you want to authenticate the users from Ldap or Active Directory there are special instructions for them. Let me know, I successfully joint my Linux with a domain, share file and printer with ADS users. I will write step-by-step instruction on the how-to, because I had a hard time looking for instructions when I first started last month.

Samba is used to integrate Linux/Unix Servers and Desktops into Active Directory environments using the winbind daemon.
The OP wants to connect to a linux PC from a windows PC.
thanks repo u understand my problem.i just want to locally connect my windows pc to linux terminal. Very simple thing but guys r saying me samba which is a different thing.
it is the correct answer of my problem but pratically how can i do it i does't know.kindly guide me bcz every time i physically go to my linux computer and work on it.
so in short words we can say that ssh is only for linux and putty for windows to linux command line communication ?
No, there are ssh clients and servers for windows also.
You need to use putty or another ssh client to connect to a linux ssh server.
Putty is just a grafical interface for a ssh client.
to use putty will be very simple.If boh computers on the network are linux then ssh will be ideal.
I have sean the file in /etc/ssh/ssh_conf but i does know how to use it.in my enviroment i am using fedora as well on client side.
