The most obvious understanding of it is a drive letter (ie Windows
box).
More exactly, a remote server filesystem 'mounted' (not sure of the
Windows' term) as a local drive. I am pretty sure I have read of this
being done.

        <right-click>"My Computer"

        "Map Network Drive"

        So I suspect you could refer to it as a "mapped" filesystem.
Or you could refer to it as a 'net use' drive, since that's the commandline way to mount it on Windoze.
