Seth, you are correct. I left that step out
On Windows cmd prompt type:
ftp linuxhost
Logon using Linux username and password
cd /path/to/iso
bin
get isofile
Wait until transfer is finished.

There is an easy to use tool available, winscp, which shows up like a file-manager with two panes, one pane is the server, the other your windows box. Just log on with the same credentials as you use when remoting in via SSH and then you can select and copy or move your file from the Linux to the Windows box.

and then
sudo mount -t cifs //windowsmachineip/c$ -o username=domain\user,passw
cd /linux1/ISO/
cp -p linux.iso /mnt/smbshare
once transferred
rmdir /mnt/smbshare
