You would need to install the CIFS client (Samba Client) on your HPUX system, try the link below...

Once installed, you can share out the CD-ROM in Windows and then connect to it from your HP box as follows:

smbclient \\\\server\\\share -I -U

*dont ask me why so many back slashes, but thats the only way I've ever got it to work*

Hope this helps.
