USE SAMBA.

You can access the windows share as follows.

smbclient "\\\ip_add\\share" -U user_name

By using SAMBA you can achieve this very easily.

Thanks

You'll need to install the free SAMBA product from HP called CIFS/9000. Get a copy from software.hp.com

As several people have mentioned you can use HP's version of Samba (CIFS/9000 Server) with the smbclient command. This will give you ftp-like access to files and directories on a Win2k Server share.
You can ALSO use the CIFS/9000 CLIENT product (also free, and available at software.hp.com, or from your application cd rom set) to actually do cifsmounts of a win2k share to a hpux mountpoint, similar to the way nfs mount points are made. this will give people who have 'cifslogin'ed' to access these files as if they were on an hpux mounted file system. NOTE that locking is NOT supported with the CIFS Client product, so any program that requires locking in HP-UX will not work with these files.
