Solve : Is there a windows FTP deamon that will support something like mount points??

Answer»

Hey guys,

I have a small issue. We have a windows server box with key drives that i use as a NAS/FTP for the EMPLOYEES. As the business has GROWN this had lead to a issue; most windows deamons i run into to of course support drive LETTERS and FTP is normaly a unix app. So, since the storage has expanded to multiple HDD's i have had to create 4 different accounts for each employee to reach each hdd, since windows WANTS me to make a new root on each drive. I have worked around this by keeping the new stuff/most accessed/needed on the main HDD and root, and ALSO keeping it on a domain share as well, but its getting to be a issue. Also because we have a dual hard/soft ware raid in the box and the USB tape drive in the box is all setup and drivers for windows, so i dont really want to install a nix os unless i must.

Is there a windows deamon or a way to use something like windows mount points? Cygwin maybe? I've messed with that before, but since graudateing i've mostly worked with windows and my linux/unix skills are not as sharp as they used to be, so input is appericated! (And no laughing at me. )
