Map remote sftp directory in windows

I have 2 questions. What's the best way to:

1. map a directory on a remote web server as a local drive using ssh/sftp under windows xp? The remote server runs red hat linux. If I need to use a third party tool can you recommend a good freeware app that is low on system resource requirement?

2. do the above but on a windows 2003 server. So we map the remote folder (unix server) as a drive on the local network windows server, so that the drive becomes available to all clients in the local network.

Thank you
