Windows and "Linux Zaurus" can be connected via USB and a companion connection software, but you could also manage the connection by a simple samba setting.
I created a directory /home/zaurus/zsamba as the new directory to be shared. Using "terminal" software of Zaurus ( you must install it from the companion CD) and operating little keyboard by two fingers, I added following to /usr/lib/samba/smb.conf with vi.
[zsamba]
comment = for netbeans
path = /home/zaurus/zsamba
read only = no
guest ok = yes
force user = zaurus
After saving the file and making sure Zaurus is connected to LAN, as a superuser,
#smbd
nmdb seemed to be installed but I couldn't make the daemon work. Sharing is available without nmbd but perhaps that's why I couldn't find my Zaurus in "My network" of Windows. I had to set Zaurus an IP address and release the dog to fetch it.

get the dinosaur, doggy.
The doggy fetched this:

SAKURA is a name of workgroup we use at home( we don't use NT domain). Opening it you can see the directory "zsamba", as well as default shared directory "home".

Then I assigned to it a network drive Z.

After that you can describe Zaurus' folder as "Z:\\..." in NetBeans' property files.
