I have been
experimenting with the offline folders feature of Windows 2000 Professional to
make a local offline copy of a network share held on the
filer.
I have found that
when I create a brand new share on a Windows 2000 Server and mark this share to
be available offline everything works OK.
When I create an
identical share on our filer and make this available offline everything seems
fine at first. The documents will sync. I can then take my laptop off of our
network and read the offline copies of the documents. The problem comes when I
reconnect. If I have only created new documents whilst at home, on reconnection
these synchronize fine. If I have amended an existing document, when I return
the synchronization fails with the following errors :
Offline Files (\\Filer\share on Filer): Unable to access 'New
Microsoft Word Document.doc' on \\Filer\share. An unexpected network error
occurred.
Offline Files (\\Filer\share on Filer): Unable to merge offline
changes on '\\filer\share'. An unexpected network error
occurred.
I have checked the
permissions and both share and file level permissions are set to
Everyone - Full Control.
I have also upgraded
to the latest version of OnTap hoping this would cure it.
Any ideas
?
Kind
