Guest Cirene Posted August 26, 2008 Posted August 26, 2008 Using Windows Server Standard 2007 SP1. How can I PERMANENTLY map an FTP drive to a drive letter? I tried doing a Map Network Drive, but when I put ftp://ftp.myserver.com in the 'folder' it tells me that "Windows cannot access xxxxx". I am able to click on the "Connect to a web stie that you can use to store your documents and pictures." That will enable me to put in the ftp login info and see the files. BUT, I can't seem to map that connection to a drive letter. Can you help please???
