Umm..a PST file should never go over 2GB as it becomes unstable. 2GB is the theoretical/and tested maximum.

We also had to contend with laptops that couldn't connect to the network when outside (we have vpn but they usually just need email and with multigig pst files it was slooooooooow opening Outlook from the file server). The DLO creates local backups of the user files on the laptops until it detects that it is connected back to the network, then it uploads the backups to the central server. Believe me we tried many things in order to not have to pay Veritas more moola, but in the end the DLO was the only thing that worked for us.
