Mount linux 'drive' or 'folder' on Windows as a network drive?

Hi there,

Trying to figure a few things out for a simple implementation of something at home.

Currently, there's two computers in the house, one being a laptop and one being my home desktop, I'm wanting to be able to share files to the Laptop through files that're on a linux server (Dedi in OVH) Mainly for seamless integration of files and whatnot, so I can just throw files around like you would on a network storage drive.

I know people may suggest, WinSCP or FileZilla, but that's not going to sit inside of Windows Explorer is it? I'm not going to be able to fire a double click on an icon and see all my files am I, without entering a few passwords and a few unix commands or "moving" around.

The only way I can currently see it being possible is to just use WinSCP and make a user that auto logs in to the specified folder "lets say, /home/chris/personal/".

but it's not going to be as seamless as I want it, is there anything anybody has heard of, that may help me out?

Thanks,
Chris.
