Question: I was going to attempt Samba over SSH, any better ideas?

Edit:
My mom has been bugging me to do some offsite backing up of her files. She currently uses [Norton Ghost](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghost_%28software%29). I have a VPS that I use for some other stuff and I figured that I could just setup a FTP server and let Norton connect to that for some offsite backing up action. But for some unknown reason, Norton doesn't handle SFTP or FTPS, so I have to figure out how to automatically mount a Linux drive on Windows or get Norton working with SFTP.

Edit:
Thanks for all your help guys (girls?)!

Answer: 
Your approach might work but WebDAV might fit the bill as well.
rsync does not actually mount a filesystem but nonetheless lets you list contents of directories and transfer files to and from a Linux machine.

rsync for Windows can be found, for example, in rsync.zip archive [there](http://www.brentnorris.net/rsyncntdoc.html)
