Yes, you cannot "mount" PC shared drives somewhere into
the MPE/iX directory tree. Samba on Linux (and CIFS/9000)
can do this.

However, I recall that smbclient can access a PC shared
drive and pull files into a tar file for backup purposes.
The opposite (i.e. extract tar file and place files onto
a PC shared drive) is also possible.

It is something in the line of...

 smbclient '\\yourPC\C$' pcPass -U pcUser -D 'some\dir' -Tc target.tar

 smbclient '\\yourPC\C$' pcPass -U pcUser -D 'some\dir' -Tx source.tar

I haven't used it for ages. See smbclient.1.html for details.
You might want to try this to confirm/work-out details instead
of blindly trusting my faint memory ;-)

Lars.
