Sharing an xfs filesystem to a windows client [solved]

Hey there,
So I have been looking around for quite some time. I was wondering if anyone knew about any software that would allo my windows machines to read a XFS partition over my network. I do not want to use virtual software. I also saw some tools such as lstools and ext2fsd, but they did not look promising. The reason I am using XFS is because I have a large amount of music and photos.
