I believe she is looking to have it "appear on their local machines" from
the network, but not require them to map a connection to the server. Sounds
to me like just what DFS was made for! Set up the server as a DFS root and
the shared folder on the server can be added as a file system folder on
their machines. You will still need to share the folder containing the files
in question, but I believe you can make it a hidden share on the server and
still have it work.

Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Remote Folder appear local
I am not totally sure what your goal is here. But some things to think
about...
1. Off Line files (of course occasionally they will need access to the
network.
2. Write a script that does a file copy and call it from a logon script.
3. Create a .msi file with SMS Installer or WISE or WinInstall LE that
does a file copy and push the .msi via group policy. (Of course they
will need access to the network)
How are you expecting to do this without access to the network?
SneakerNet may work <G>...

Subject: [ActiveDir] Remote Folder appear local
I am interested if anyone can tell me how can I put the same files on
all client computers (some users) from my server. Is it possible. If not
can I make a shared folder on the server visible as a local one to all
my client computer. i mean that they would not have to connect to my
server through the network. I do not want them to have access to the
local network (should not be able to browse it)
thanks
marija
P.S. Can anyone tell me how can I make backup of my server Windows 2000
