map a network drive.

I don't have a thin client handy. And I didn't see the answer here
during a search, so hopefully someone can help.

The plan is to take a thin client Windows CE device and use it's
built-in IE for browsing the web. No ICA, no RDP. I assume we could
replace the Shell fairly easily, I'd like a pointer to some resources
for this type of thing. Mainly because I need to map a network drive
letter to a NAS device where data is going to be stored and displayed
through IE. thanks in advance for your input!

If you want to Manage Filesystem and Network Drive (Samba) in Web page.
you'll need to use Windows Script Host (WSH) ActiveX Object and JavaScript.

But the WSH is not exist in WinCE, so you may need to write an ActiveX
Object that can provide the similar function with the WSH!
Or if your NAS support WebDAV, you can use IE by HTTP:// url to access your
NAS...

And actually, there is no Driver Letter in WinCE you can only mount a
Network Share into some Path...
