IMHO, opinion you'd be _way_ better off using samba.
(the unix implementation of windows SMB networking)
NFS clients for windows never seem to be satisfactory in terms of 
efficiency or reliability, but the samba server is known to do 
windows networking a fair bit faster than windows itself.
It also means no configuration on the windows end, and similar
degree of difficulty on the unix end.
Make sure you get the newest version, though,

-Greg(Running Samba very smoothly - dreading W98, tho)
