    You can use Samba/SCP/SFTP or NFS for this.
    quite simple when you have that much options.

    I will tell you a easiest way.
    Install openssh-server rpm with dependacies.
    Keep OpenSSH server running

    Use these commands as root.
    # chkconfig ssh on
    # service ssh start
    Now open your nautilus
    and put
    ssh://server's.ip.address.here
    login with a regular linux account. and its done.

    Or you can go for Samba, if you are using fedora its already configured. but not on RHEL or CentOS
    Never make any misteaks.
