can a network get a drive letter?
« on: November 04, 2009, 01:21 PM »

Does this exist?
 
I'm looking for a command utility that just allows me to assign a directory on an ftp site to be a drive letter on my local machine.

That way I can just use Robocopy to make backups from batch file to a directory on my web server.  I do see that some programs can be loaded to do it, but I'd like that drive letter permanently assigned and always available so automated backups can run unattended.

Either cURL or this link look like your best bets:
