Running server 2003 with nfs server and client set up.

I'm able to access linux NFS shares from windows as expected but not
the other way round.

Linux documentation shows nfs mount command like this:

server:/share /pub nfs [options]

But on windows the filesystem naming is different so what is the right
syntax to mount a windows share?

Using the NFS server on windows 2003 I've setup an NFS share using the
file explorer and right click for sharing/NFS sharing, with the name:
chub-e (for the E:\ drive)

How does this fit into the mount command on linux?

The server part I guess can be specified as the IP or at least that is
what the linux docs say so:

192.168.0.2:<WHAT HERE> /localLinuxDir nfs [options]

I've tried all the combination I could come up with:
192.168.0.2:E:\
192.168.0.2:chub-e
192.168.0.2:/e
Even the UNC designation:
192.168.0.2://chub/chub-e

None of above work and give the error (no such file or directory)

Have you asked on the user mailing list for your Linux distribution?
