I have a Windows 2000 machine that would like access to a UNIX server for file manipulation, and possible backing up ability.

Is there a client or some software that I can run to accomplish this?

Thanks,
-Alex

the samba service has to be running on the UNIX box, I believe... I've never had to do this before, but I believe that is what is required to do so. Search the web for samba, unix, or some combo and you'll find a lot of info I bet.

Actually, Telnet would be the easiest solution assuming the server is running on the Unix box and you are familiar with the shell's F/S commands.
