RE: [ActiveDir] Sites and Folder Redirection

[Bernard, Aric]

Unfortunately it does not relieve any network traffic.  If the online file can be accessed (network is up) it will be used.  Only when the online copy is inaccessible will the offline cache be used.  Not sure if SP2 has had any impact on this though….   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Noah Eiger Sent: Monday, January 31, 2005 5:36 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Sites and Folder Redirection   Yes. I believe if you enable   User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Network\Offline Files\Do not automatically make redirected folders available offline   …that it does not affect the ability of users to make things “manually” available offline.   I was mostly wondering if folks had found this “automatic” feature to be of any real value. I think it was created to provide some redundancy and relieve network traffic.   --- nme   From: Cothern Jeff D.

Do people generally leave this enabled?”   Ok can this be disabled without disabling the ability for users to make files that want offline to be offline?
