What I did was set the policy to turn off the file sync for offline
files which automatically is set with folder redirection.  If they are
on the network they don't really need offline file going as they are
always online.   For laptops I can understand but then generally only
one user uses those machines.

You can work around it, not really an easy fix though.

This is by design (albeit bad IMO)

IIRC this wont occur if  3 or fewer profiles sync , due to design.

 Subject: [ActiveDir] Offline Files Question

 Hi -

 Configuraiton: All users have their My Documents redirected to network
shares. All XP (and most 2000) users have My Documents set to
synchronize  Offline Files. All are set to synchronize at log on and log
off.

 Many users have complained that when they log off, they see not only
their  files synchronize but also the files of other users who have user
profiles  on that machine. Often they will get permissions errors on the
other  users' files since the home directories are secured as per MSKB
274443.
 This is a hassle because it stalls at the end of the sync (waiting to
have  someone acknowledge the error) and because it takes so long.

 Is this behaviour as expected? Why is it synchronizing other users'
files?
 Is there a way to prevent this?

 Thanks.
