Thanks for the tips chaps.

[Win]SCP: I already use this a lot for web server maintenance. It hadn't really occurred to me to use it in this instance as I was keen to have something as seemless as possible with the usual Windows UI (i.e. mapped drive under My Computer). More for my colleague's sake rather than my own Having said that, WinSCP isn't that alien for the lay user I guess, so maybe it's a contender.

SSHFS looks interesting, as with SCP I'll need to see if it passes the same 'non-techie user' criteria.

Sounds like NFS might be problematic...

As a first step I'll look into the WINS stuff though. Never messed with the more sordid details of windows networking before - wish me luck!


Thanks again,
