Andy Hibbins: is on the right track. i dont think dos can find a unix nfs unless you have samba installed.
also your alternative is to dump the data you want to tape and restore it on the new machine (this being the best idea cuz you will then have a static back up of the data if ever needed again.
check out
www.samba.org. altho if this is a one time thing samba might be more of a hasstle to set up, but it does come handy.
if this is a one time deal then just tar every thing you want and send it over via ftp.
but i will admit samba as a project can be fustrating but it is extreamly useful and fun after you get it working the first time. practice makes perfect.

pmdasamba
PMDASAMBA(1) Performance Co-Pilot PMDASAMBA(1)
NAME
pmdasamba - Samba performance metrics domain agent (PMDA)
DESCRIPTION
pmdasamba is a Performance Metrics Domain Agent (PMDA) which exports metric values from Samba, a Windows SMB/CIFS server for UNIX.
In order for values to be made available by this PMDA, Samba must have been built with profiling support (WITH_PROFILE in "smbd -b"
output). This PMDA dynamically enumerates much of its metric hierarchy, based on the contents of "smbstatus --profile".
When the agent is installed (see below), the Install script will attempt to enable Samba statistics gathering, using "smbcontrol
--profile".
INSTALLATION
If you want access to the names and values for the samba performance metrics, do the following as root:
# cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/samba
# ./Install
If you want to undo the installation, do the following as root:
# cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/samba
# ./Remove
pmdasamba is launched by pmcd(1) and should never be executed directly. The Install and Remove scripts notify pmcd(1) when the agent is
installed or removed.
FILES
$PCP_PMDAS_DIR/samba/Install
installation script for the pmdasamba agent
$PCP_PMDAS_DIR/samba/Remove
undo installation script for the pmdasamba agent
$PCP_LOG_DIR/pmcd/samba.log
default log file for error messages from pmdasamba
