curl 7.13.2 on Win2000 with AD domains.

Try: "file:\\server\sharedrive\folders\file" as the URL.
curl just passes the whole URL (minus the file:) to the OS in this case,
so it's treated the same as if you had entered
copy "\\server\sharedrive\folders\file" . at the command-line.
Is -C supported for file: URLs? I would expect so, but if you're still having
trouble, try dropping it.
