Hello,

Windows XP SP2 machine folder synchronization and redirection of "My
Documents" to a Windows Server 2003 RC2 SP2

I have an User that has tons of Access databases (mdb & dbfs) that he cannot
synchronize offline. He receives the following error message.

Unable to make filename.mdb available offline on \\server\location. Files of
this type cannot be made available offline.

This sounds like a permissions problem, but I don't see anything wrong. Any
suggestions.

Thanks.

Hi Kenny,

It's by design. You can change the default behavior.
