Get WindowsXP to see a shared linux folder

How do i get WindowsXP to see a shared linux folder?

Your samba configuration must be wrong. If you set up a folder correctly with the smb service running it has to be visible. You need a linux and samba login for any user to connect to it. Also remove IPX/SPX, unless you are using any netware machines. It is not needed otherwise, and the extra protocol can slow the network. NFS has no bearing on Windows shares.
