Windows NT includes TCP/IP as part of the operating system, you could just use
ftp to transfer files across both platforms.  Or you could purchase NFS for
NT, there are two seperate versions, 'client' and 'server'.  the client would
allow your PC to mount the Amiga (running nfsd - check amiTCP), you would
then assign a PC drive, E: F: etc. as a remote disk located on the amiga.
The Server, would allow the Amiga or any other machine to mount the PC
hard drives.  You do not need NT Server, NT Workstation will do fine.
I have this set up already.  My company writes one particular NFS package
available for Windows NT so I was able to get hold of it easily.
