For file transfers over the network, you can use samba [samba.org] on the Linux box, which basically fools windows machines into thinking it's an NT file / print server.

For transferring between partitions on a dual boot, most Linux distros will read and write quite happily to your windows partition, it looks like just another directory in your file system. I think Mandrake does this automatically, but you may need to set it up yourself (it's simple enough though)

sygate: I haven't a clue ;)
I do it the other way - the linux box connects to the net, and acts as the gateway for the windows boxes.
