Server 2003 Enviroment

Win XP SP2 Clients.

 

Currently our enviroment is setup with all our users having a "Home" drive

H: on the server. "My Documents" is then redirected to the H:\

 

For some reason, our Notebook users who opperate frequently offline (no

network connection) have noted that when they try to install software or view

solution?

Then you need to enable Offline Files.

 

We map users home directories to H: too but My Documents on the desktop is

redirected directly to their server share rather than H:
