Here's how to set up NFS on Debian or Ubuntu. It's pretty straightforward. http://users.telenet.be/mydotcom/howto/linuxsbs/linuxnetworking.htm

If you set up your VM's with bridged networking, the VM's and the host system will be able to see each other

But I doubt Win XP can do NFS.

For Windows, to get NFS support, you have to go to the Microsoft web site and download "Services for UNIX" for your version of Windows. It is free and it works well.

Cheers,
