So you want your unix box to mount several Windows shares from
different servers, then make them available, via Samba, as a single
windows share for clients to mount?

You can probably do both with Samba - "mount -t smbfs" the shares, then
make that directory available with Samba. 

However you do it, I imagine the speed will be abysmal...
