Hello,

I would recommend samba. You can also try using NFS, I've heard that
windows can mount NFS shares.

About the security thing, I don't know if the protocol used by samba is
secure between clients, but you can still run a VPN between your openbsd
box and the Windows client to allow connecting to the samba share
securely.
