Well, rosariowong, since your first post is not very clear about it, I therefore make this assumption.
It is entirely possible that, given a right software is installed, you can map, says z:, to a nfs mount in another machine, much like a window share. But they are usually commerial product. I am not aware of a OSS implementation of such.
You have to make up your mind what exactly you are looking after.
keefaz, I really do not know the answer to the questions. But presumably some admin, in a predominately unix shop, may prefer to use nfs only to avoid 1) keep track of another set of mountpounts in smb and 2) potential file locking issue if nfs and samba export the same directory.
I just configureted the smb.conf. And now How I do to acess to win xp. I must to do anything in fstab? I must write any command in console to acess to the other computer?
