you could try using cifsd to import data from windows into plan9.
I wrote and used this file server daily for about 15 years, but I no longer need windows for my work
and so the code has stagnated, whilst windows keeps moving.
The last person I suggested cifs to had no luck getting it to connect and authenticate under windows10;
the last system I used myself was Windows 7, and this needed a couple of registry settings adjusted
to allow it to support the (now depreciated) smb2 auth cifs still uses.
To be clear - windows 10 may work with some registry hacks but noone has done it yet.
Really an SMB3 plan9 client is the way to go - more efficient (larger packets) and simpler (much of the historic
cruft in smb2 has gone).
I am happy to help if you want to try, but I can only give limited help as I have no windows boxen.
