    Hi.

    I have web server space through GoDaddy.com and I'd like to use it as a storage drive between multiple computers.

    I am able to add it to my network places, but I run into trouble trying to map it to a network drive.

    Here's what I'm doing.

    1. My Network Places --> Add a new network place

    2. I go to my network places, click on my newly added FTP address and it shows up beautifully.

    3. Tools --> Map Network Drive

    4. I leave the drive letter as "Z"

    5. Folder....now this is giving me trouble. If I hit Browse, go to my network places and choose the network place I added, it won't let me select it (or any other network place for that matter. If I try to manually type in \\ftp.xxxxxx.com\server I keep getting a message that it's attempting to map the network drive, followed bo "the network path \\ftp.xxxxxx.com\server cannot be found."

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    -Tim
