you should install the samba package on your unix host. This will then
allow you to mount a unix disk on your W95/NT machine simply like a
windows network connection.
Note that the configuration of samba may be tricky and that it requires
root access privilege.
I don't have in mind the URL to get the samba package, but a ftp search
should tell you where to get it.
