If all you need is access to the Linux filesystem on the BBB, then Samba is
the best way to go. Any working howto for Debian wheezy found on the web
should work.

Then, on Windows . . .

1) Right click computer
2) Select map network drive.
3) add \\BBB_ip_address\sharename
4) select connect using different credentials checkbox
5) click finish
6) enter username / passwd for Linux smbuser
