You'll need a program by the name of Samba in order to make it possible to access files on your server from a windows machine.

First thing is to install samba:

# apt-get install samba

Once this is done, you'll have to create your passwords for your users again:

Type in console when you're root:

# smbpasswd USERNAME

The program will ask for a password. Username and password you've enter there will allow you to login from a windows client.
