I'm not a networking guy, but we're on a Novell network at work, and they (the network gurus) use something called Zen to push applications out to client's pc's. I'd think there would be similar apps for other platforms (not sure tho).
In any event, without some sort of external mechanism like an ActiveX control or the like, you're not going to be able to read/write etc from the web server to a client's pc (not in any way that I can think of, at least).

No...but this is a internal application only.
How can I go about copying/ftp'ing direcoctories/files from the server to the users PC?

you don't...not without some sort of ActiveX control or signed script.
Think about it. would you want a web site to have access to your machine/drives/directories/files?

Sorry, didn't quite finish. Hit the return by accident.
So...how can I display a directory on the client PC?
