Put a cvs client on the webserver (just the command line will do plus any protocol DLLs you're using) then have a script that does the update. You should be able to arrange it so that the linux server is able to fire the script on the windows server - we do something similar using email notifications.. the windows server (in our case a test box) has a MAPI client app that waits for an email to arrive then automatically runs an update. OTOH you might get away with it if you're not modifying the checked out websites... you can just have the linux server checkout the websites on postcommit (using a samba share to the windows box).
