Well, what Debian version and which kind of kernel are you using?
Chances are that you already have ntfs (read, not write) support
enabled. Then it's just a question of mounting the ntfs
partition. See:

http://linux-ntfs.sourceforge.net/info/ntfs.html

Especially section 4:

http://linux-ntfs.sourceforge.net/info/ntfs.html#4.0

For access from xp to see section 3.2:

http://linux-ntfs.sourceforge.net/info/ntfs.html#3.2

I personally have good experiences with explore2fs.

Hope that helps,

Andreas
