Yes. (below)

If you can see your $HOME directory from the SMB server do the
following:
Login using ssh
$ su - root
# ln -s /the/www/base/dir /your/home/dir
# exit
$ exit
If you have write permission as a user to the www tree then you can
copy the files using the symbolic link in your home dir. Note that it
is a *bad* idea to make your www tree world writable so be careful
with the permissions in there. The default permissions may not allow
this to work.
Or, use c-kermit on your client and install c-kermit running IKSD on
your server and set it up for automating the transfer of updated
files to the www tree. You can configure kermit to use encryption if
needed and the developers at The Kermit Project give excellent
support. Here is the start page for their site:

Also the comp.protocols.kermit.misc group is a good place to ask for
support when setting up this kind of connection. I've added it to the
groups for this message.
