As rightly pointed out by Rajeev , you can use NFS.
1) You have to 'export' the directory to be shared by placing an entry in
/etc/exports
2) Then , you can 'mount' it from the machine using mount command.  You  can
put an  entry in /etc/fstab  for automatic mounting.

This is a nice reference:
http://nfs.sourceforge.net/nfs-howto/index.html

You can use SMB also. ftp , telnet , rsh , ssh are always there.

In many cases ,symbolic links ( created using ln -s ) can  provide a 'view
layer' without disturbing the the organization of files.
