Well there is no doubt that both linux and windows use the same tcp/ip, the question is just what you want to do? you'll be able to use windows telnet and ftp to gain access to your debian box (assuming you're running telnetd and ftpd) and if you get ftp server software for windows you and ftp to the windows box. I don't think that samba will work over tcp/ip, someone correct me if I'm wrong. But what exactly are you trying to do? Are you setting up a LAN? Or are you trying to connect two machines at different locations via the internet?
