I want to map my webspace (via ftp) as a drive on my computer i.e. (ftp://somehost.com/username --> X: )

Well... using the standard "Map Network Drive" Choose my ftp site in my network connections this simply isn't good enough for Windows 2000 (it won't enable the OK box)

Does anyone know the command line replacement so I can either see how to do it or find out what is wrong and work around it

Any suggestions?

I've got a small program that does that, but for the life of me, I can't remember the name... I'll look though my cds and try to find it....

Ok found it...

Internet Neighborhood (http://in.deerfield.com)

Its not shareware, but only 30 bucks, and here's the free trail:
ftp://ftp1.deerfield.com/pub/current/insetup.exe

When I go to map a network drive in Windows 2000 Professional, there's this little link that says "Create a shortcut to Web Folder or FTP Site."

Clicking on that lets you basically map a ftp site which shows up in windows explorer.
