command-line copying of files to Windoze box

| I have a desktop running win2k. I'd like to copy files from my FC4
laptop to a windows machine.
Using the Konquerer browser isn't working. Konquerer crashes when I
try to browse the e-book directory (I think this is because of the
number of files in it). It's many gigs of ebook files, all in the same
directory.
I can't telnet or scp because those ports are blocked.
Is there a way to copy files via SAMBA, on the command line? I think
mv (or the like) would be able to handle the command, as it doesn't
have to check the entire directory list before handling the files.

If you can mount the remote filesystem using samba, you can simply cp or
mv them in the usual manner. Also check out "smbclient."
