What type of resources? ... you're already sharing disk, cpu, memory and network.

why not try a tool?sometimes a tool is much more convenient than commands,here i advice you a tool "SSHSecureShellClient-3.2.9",you could download and try this on your win7

ps:this is a tool on windows,it's used for ssh remote managing your linux os,and file transfer!
