[CPLUG] Network folder HOW-TO (was Dual-boot Linux)

[Nat Welch]

Windows? Ewwwwwwwwww.

ssh isn't built into windows in any way but you can use external tools
to do this. If you were using svn or git, then you could just check
out the repository, but a quick google search comes up with lots of
options, like http://www.expandrive.com/sftpdrive/
