On the computer where that folder / drive is physically located:
In Windows, you create a share, with Linux you can use Samba. Do not forget to set the access rights correctly (also the access right of the file system, not only for sharing).

On the other computer in the network:
You can access it with \\ComputerName\ShareName in e.g. Windows explorer. You can map it to a drive letter in Windows explorer or with the net use command.
