stop synchronize other's files


Recommended Posts

Posted

In a corporate computing environment we have two users, userA and userB.

 

UserA has been using its laptop for a long time. He has access permission to

\\servername\aaa and has made its content available offline. It works

beautifully without problem.

 

Now userA ( a He) bought a new laptop and gives its old one to userB (a

She). UserA continues to access its \\servername\aaa folder and files and

makes them available offline to him.

 

UserB uses the old laptop under her own Domain user account UserB. She also

has access permission to \\servername\bbb folder in the server and is also

having a need to make its contents available offline.

 

But when the system does the sychronization, it not only synchronize userB's

data/files but it appears it also tries to sychronize some 'remaining' userA

data in the pc that she is using. Is this normal?

 

There is an error message, however, it complains synchronization of offline

files with the content of \\servrname\aaa cannot be completed due to access

violation.

 

The access violation part is no surprise to me. Because I know userB is not

able to access userA's data in the file server. However, can we ask the

system to stop synchronize those 'residual' offline files in her laptop with

the server?

 

You may ask why I have a concern like this? What if userA signon his

pre-loved pc. The system may succeed in synchronizing. But they are 'old

unwanted data', isn't it.

 

thanks.

Re: SPAM! stop synchronize other's files

 

Why not provide a real and useful answer so that all users can benefit?

Or at least provide a link to your site where the useful answer is

available? All that you posted is SPAM for your pay for services, a

useless site where nothing is available unless you register and pay.

Hello ykffc,

 

In the synchronisation window you can also setup the synchronisation. Just

expand it and choose to take out the old sync config.

Re: SPAM! stop synchronize other's files

 

Hello John,

That's amusing.

The OP needs to google for "re-initialize offline cache". The reason I give

the term is that if you are unfamiliar with it, it is not the most obvious

choice of words to look for. But a quick search will give the answer. This

is the top result. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/230738. I generally find

that re-phrasing the knowledgebase article adds no value, since all the

detail is contained there already. So if I can help the OP find the

information they need quickly, I think its a job well done.

The URL after my name is my "signature". Its what we do. I don't consider a

signature to be spam,

If you have any other comments or questions, or advice to offer, please feel

free to express them,

Anthony, http://www.airdesk.com

Forgetting about the link in Anthony's sig - that's a debate for another

day - but:

 

What was wrong with his answer? Did you try Googling for what he said?

 

I did. Whole page of relevant links, looked pretty useful to me, given

the nature of the user's problem.

 

Just because he didn't put a direct link to a MSKB article in his reply,

why does that make his answer useless?

 

Just curious.

Re: SPAM! stop synchronize other's files

 

The way your web link appears so close to the text in your answer it

appeared to me like you were telling readers to go to your web site and

search there. Perhaps having your web link under your name in your

signature would have given a different impression. I apologize for my

error.

I didn't expect that he post a link. The way his web site appeared so

close to the text in his signature and without being delimited it

appeared to me that he was telling readers to go to his site and search

there. The confusion would have been avoided if he placed his web link

under his name or if he would have said "Do a search on the net for..."

 

My error...

Re: SPAM! stop synchronize other's files

 

I accept your apology. I think if I had said "google for" you would not have

made that mistake. Because I said "look for" I think you misunderstood and

jumped to conclusions.
