Any ideas? Is this even possible?

I don't want only to read from an FreeBSD UFS but also write on it using Windows.

This is actually quite easy, while not really elegant:

  • Install VirtualBox on Windows
  • create a FreeBSD VM with a "Host Only" network
  • Assign the partition in question to the VM as a virtual disk
  • Install Samba on the FreeBSD VM and make it export that disk

You can now access the Samba share from Windows, in effect reading from and writing to the UFS partition.
