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???

Not possible.
File system functions -vs- FTP functions = Apples -vs- Oranges
