using a remote "My Documents"

[Guest Someone Besides Me]

I was wondering how to force XP Pro SP2 to use a remote folder as "My

Documents". I don't need to worry about caching or sync'ing. Just have

it on a remote system.

 

Thank you

No problem - just point your "My Documents" at the remote folder....just

be aware that if you DON'T use something like off-line files and the

network connection goes down, files you are working on locally will NOT

be automatically saved on the remote server...

Right-Click "My Documents" folder and select properties. Click Move... and

select your new location.
