Yes Sanjay,

The product for doing so is called Samba

chkconfig samba on (may be smb)

edit file /etc/samba/smb.conf

Set it up for security, authentication and shares ( http://www.samba.org )

service samba start

samba may be smb on some systems.

Good Luck.

Re: make fileserver

Hi
If you want file sharing between linux and linux u need to use NFS.
If you want between linux and windows u need to use Samba.

Cheers
