Samba should work.  I suspect SMBFS would not, since the NTFS (or FAT) file
system is inside of a container file.  To Linux, it just looks a like a big
(I'm using a 1 GB container file) single file, with stuff inside of it.  I'd
be quite (pleasantly) surprised of SMBFS could directly read it as a Windows
file system.
