Guest Fearful1138 Posted June 9, 2008 Posted June 9, 2008 Hi I'm having problems with the following scenario: A manager of a department has access to a shared folder that the rest of his department regularly file documents. This folder is located on at a share on a Windows 2003 R2 file server. This manager has made this folder, and sub-folders, available off-line. If a user other than this manager creates another folder within this folder it is not marked as available off-line and no files in this folder are synched. If the manager navigates to this new folder whilst on-line and creates a file within it, the file, the folder and all other files within it are now marked as available off-line. This is a problem because the manager has no way of know if a user has created a new folder, unless he's told. This only happens from an XP client, Vista is fine. Any ideas, anyone? -- Chris Blake
