Vista and offline files

[woody]

Hi

 

I have a vista laptop that I have added to the W2k3 server. On the network, GPOs are set to redirect the documents folder on the desktop. XP laptops work great when the my docs folder is redirected and you select 'Make available offline'. But this Vista laptop just won't have it. The folder redirect works perfect. But when you select 'Make available offline in the properties of the 'Documents' folder, it synced the first time, but subsequent syncs fail almost immediately. In the details for sync errors, I get:

 

$RECYCLE.BIN (\\server\share\username\My Documents) - An internal error occurred

 

My Documents (\\server\share\username) - Unable to sync at this time. Please try again.

 

RECYCLER (\\server\share\username\My Documents) - Unable to sync at this time. Please try again.

 

Has anybody experienced this before? It should just work, but it doesn't and I can find anything on MS support or on the net.

have you got a large amount of data to sync, had a similar issues today, i just increased the local offline file cache size in control panel and it worked.
