You can setup 'File and Print Services for Mac' on a Windows 2000 server and
create a file share on it that the Mac will understand. Optionally (I
haven't tried it personally yet) but I'm pretty sure it will work since OS-X
is UNIX based - you could compile Samba on the OS-X machine and set up a SMB
share on it that Windows machines could talk to.

OS X.2 (Jaguar) has a very usable gui samba under the sharing system
preference. For more control there are freeware gui tools
