In windows XP and 2000 My Network Places allows me to enter my website as a
network place creating a shortcut that then asks for a username and
password.
When verified it opens my folder on my website. walla!

What happened to thisi feature in VISTA, or what is it called now?

Can't find it to save my life.

Thanks in advance

any help is appreciated

You should be able to create a shortcut wherever you want to a FTP site or
another web folder. I have the only way to use a login for an FTP shortcut
is to use (ftp://username:p[email protected]) this format.
 
Nice one!

Although it's not very obvious, it is really simple.

Click the Vista Start Button, then click on Computer. You will see your
drives, etc.

Right click anywher in the folder (but not on icon), choose "Add a Network
Location" from the speed menu. This will launch the wizard to setup your
connection and it will place a shortcut here.

Our WebDAV is a product called Xythos. It doesn't support frontpage
extensions as far as I know.
