Some of the links here should be able to help you.

If it's just a matter of file sharing, running an FTP server at each location might be an option. Here's a link that explains how to do it in XP pro and other third party apps if you don' thave XP pro.

I would try Majorgeeks. com (I disabled this link), type it in search mode and you'll get it.
