I've watched this thread for several days now and to put in my 2 cents:
 
1. Samba is not that complicated. I've been using it for years and can have it 
up and configured in a matter of minutes.
 
2. Samba quickly allows you to see your FreeBSD servers from your windows 
clients just like it was a Windows Server. A simple smb.conf file is all you 
need.
 
3. You can get a lot more complex setup with Samba with security, R/W options 
etc... but for what you're descibing I'd recommend Samba or use a graphical FTP 
client on your Windows clients to access your FreeBSD server. Command line FTP 
is an option but it's a lot more complicated than just setting up Samba.
 
Good luck.
