As long as you have the IP, you can use any service on the box:
  • HTTP: http://<ip>/
  • CIFS: \\<ip>\
  • FTP: ftp://<ip>/ or ftp <ip> on the command line
IF you have a static IP for the box AND local administration rights on your Windows PC you could edit %WINDIR%\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC\HOSTS and add
Code:
<ip>	linuxbox
