Way OT: computer networking help!!!

So, I am setting up a home network. Right now I have one XP system hooked to a router/wireless access point which is hooked to a DSL modem. I've been trying to get my work laptop to share files with my home system.
I can surf the web and vpn to my work network with my laptop (also XP) through the router, but when I try to "find" my home system (or try to find my laptop from my home system), neither system can find the other.
Is there some simple setting I'm missing? If it matters, my laptop is a member of a domain at work while my home system is part of a workgroup (I think). I'm not much of a networking dude, so most of this is new to me.
Oh, and to make this somewhat relevant, I drive my '95 900S to work every day!
Thanks,
Scott
