How to have XP machines log into F11?

How do I go about having XP client machines authenticate into their Fedora 11 accounts upon starting up windows? For example, I would like the Windows logon window show their accounts on the F11 server so they can log in and have their server stored home directories used via the network on the XP client machine they are using..

I know this is a little late, but if it's just file sharing you want, all you really need is the local ip address and username and password and you're in.
