I followed Microsoft's instructions for SFU and found that it worked
quite well if all I cared about was read-only access.  I didn't have
any further success even after installing a bunch of SFU hotfixes
(http://www.duh.org/interix/hotfixes.php).

My troubleshooting seemed to indicate that the write requests were
being denied somewhere inside the kernel, for reasons unknown.  I
didn't have the time or interest to pursue it any further, so I went
back to samba and let the thread die.
