I would recommend you don't do it like that, from Windows typically you will

(a) get the file attributes wrong

(b) end up with text files full of <CR>/<LF> terminators instead of just <LF>

(c) won't handle symbolic/hard links correctly

However if you do want to do all that then Samba will let you share a UNIX file system to be accessible by Windows.

Alternatively you need a Windows NFS client.
