Hi
You can map a drive on your 'working' machine to the web server, they should be able to see each other. You need to set-up a shared folder on your web server first, with the appropriate permissions so you can 'put' the working files there. When you edit your site, you can then navigate to the new 'mapped' drive, which is on your web server.
