    dmak10,

    You can map a shared folder from the server to your Client. To do so, in my computer, select TOOLS, MAP NETWORK DRIVE. Then select the letter you want to assign from the drop-down list, then click BROWSE. This opens a network navigator and you can select your server and the share you want. Finally, before clicking OK select the "connect at login" box to make the drive come back next session.

    What software are you using to perform the copy? I would normally just drag and drop the files, using Windows Explorer.

    I could d that, I guess my real issue is I want to access the shared folders as if they were on my local pc.  Such as when I download oictures from my camera I want to download them to the server instead of my laptop.
