Offline folders

[tamore]

i've worked in places where i could right click on a network folder or even network drive and create an offline copy which synchronised if any changes were made to either version.

our SBS2008 server doesn't seem to have this enabled though. any ideas where i can do this?

Enable it on the SBS2008 management console. You can do it through Group Policy, but SBS2008 really likes things done through the console.

Nah, just without that info it can be like shooting black cats in a dark room with astrobe light..

BlairOut has the answer for you :>

You should also be able to do it via the sync center in Vista. I do that beteeen my vista laptop and XP Pc (acting as a server)

AFAIK it is a feature of Microsofts 'Professional' Operating Systems.
i.e. XP Pro, Vista Pro, or 7 Pro.

Sorry

balls, that was what i was afraid of hearing. 7 pro/ ultimate next it is then.
