NFS is a viable solution when Samba is not possible.
My suggestion would be to set up a Linux box and make sure you can do NFS between the UNIX server and the Linux box. When you can sucessfully do this; then proceed to a UNIX-->W2K configuration. First, try UNIX<--->UNIX NFS.

NFSD(8) BSD System Manager's Manual NFSD(8)
NAME
nfsd -- remote NFS server
SYNOPSIS
nfsd [-6rut] [-n num_threads]
DESCRIPTION
nfsd runs on a server machine to service NFS requests from client machines. At least one nfsd must be running for a machine to operate as a
server.
Unless otherwise specified, four servers for UDP transport are started.
The following options are available:
-r Register the NFS service with rpcbind(8) without creating any servers. This option can be used along with the -u or -t options to
re-register NFS if the portmap server is restarted.
-n Specifies how many server threads to create. The default is 4. A server should run enough threads to handle the maximum level of
concurrency from its clients.
-6 Listen to IPv6 requests as well as IPv4 requests. If IPv6 support is not available, nfsd will silently continue and just use IPv4.
-t Serve TCP NFS clients.
-u Serve UDP NFS clients.
For example, ``nfsd -t -u -n 6'' serves UDP and TCP transports using six threads.
nfsd listens for service requests at the port indicated in the NFS server specification; see Network File System Protocol Specification, RFC
1094 and NFS: Network File System Version 3 Protocol Specification.
The nfsd utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

The nfsd utility first appeared in 4.4BSD.
