You could do this NFS and Samba.

Yep, you can mount those Doze shares right onto your linux filesystems.

check out smbmount or the new type option to the mount command depending on 
what distro and release of samba you are using.  mount -t smbfs //DOZE/C 
/DOZE-C

nfs is easy.... or should be easy... in this instance.  Make sure you have it 
blocked at the firewall/external interface...... or you could get burned.

nfs-utils
/etc/exports
portmap
and away you go.....
