SAMBA is the easiest way, why don't you want to use it?
You could install Cygwin on your Windows boxes which would allow you to
rsync files between the Windows boxes and Linux boxes. There is an NFS
client for Windows also. |

I personally like SSH. I have it installed on all my Xubuntu machines
anyway, and you can use Putty and WinSCP from Windows machines if you
like. If you want to connect from home, you can create tunnel through
your router/server. Be sure to limit SSH access to your router/server
from trusted IP adresses only, as brute-force attacks are alas not uncommon.
Best regards,

AFAIK Windows has had support for NFS for a while. You have to dig
around to find it though. Depends on the version of Windows. |

You should virtualise your windummy PCs using VirtualBox.
VirtualBox can run windummy XP OSen 2x to 4x faster than
a real PC if you have a dual core or quad core machine
Linux machine.
So you could run all your windummy PCs virtualised in one or
two quad core Linux PCs.
For file transfer use Winscp - it looks similar to explorer with two windows
to copy files from one to the other.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/winscp/
No samba - 128 bit encryption so you can also use it over the real internet
from one machine to another.
Also Works from within VirtualBox running windummy osen to connect
from windummy virtual PC to the real PC. |

Doesn't work in Vista, though:
System Requirements
* Supported Operating Systems: Windows 2000; Windows 2000 Service
Pack 3; Windows 2000 Service Pack 4; Windows Server 2003; Windows XP
* The minimum system requirements for installing Windows Services
for UNIX depends on which components you are installing and the file
system of the disk where the components will be installed.
* The maximum disk space required to install all Windows Services
for UNIX components is approximately 275 MB. The minimum disk space
required is 19 MB.
Note: The product will not install on Windows 9x or Windows XP Home
Edition or Windows Vista.

You *know* this is completely illogical, right? |

One way would be with ftp - you may need to install the free Unix Tools
from MS. |

Windows Vista has built-in support. You have to go into the Control
Panel and "extras" or "add-ons" or some such nonsense. But it's
definitely there, just well hidden. |

Not in Vista Home Premium, as far as I can tell.
