OK, but what is the nature of the network connection between the two
machines? It seems your options are FTP (PHP has support for it) and
SMB, aka Windows networking (if you can activate smbclient on your
Linux machine, you will be able to log into the Windows machine with
a user name and password).

It doesn't matter. The Windows machine has its own authorization
mechanism, independent from that on the Linux machine. You need
to figure out which protocol you will use for the transfer (FTP
or SMB, as suggested above, or maybe something else), and act
accordingly.
