    I'm trying to map a network drive in Windows 7 from a server with a secure FTP connection. I know it's easily done with normal ftp but I can't figure out how to do it using a SSL secured FTP connection ?? Any ideas ?? :)

    You seem to be getting a bit mixed up with your acronyms. Are you talking about SSH file transfer protocol (SFTP) or FTP over SSL (FTPS)?

    If you are talking about SFTP (which I assume you are because it is far more popular) try this. This provides a SFTP to FTP proxy server running on your local machine.

    It's actually FTPES but I presumed that was the same as SFTP. I'll give that software a try anyway, thanks.
