As Durk wrote, you can use SMB/Samba. What you need to do is to mount the
windows share:
(Check the man page smbmount)
Create a mount point, say /windows
then mount your share, lets call the machine hzw. 
> su    # become root
Password: 
# mkdir /windows
# mount -t smb //hzw/c /windows

Note that only root can mount a windows share at this time. 

In the long run, you should set this up in the /etc/fstab so the mount
command is simpler.
