Samba is the go for windows network integration.

Mandrake does a good job of mounting your FAT partitions automatically 
when you install it - look under /mnt when you're up and running and 
you'll see your drive(s).  I'm not familiar with what Mandrake does with 
NTFS, but you can mount it manually if Mandrake doesn't.
