Same results in the office on the LAN as at home via the VPN?

Can she go online with another server on the network (one that is not
responsible for any of her offline files)?

What if a different user, one without any offline files at all, logs in on
the laptop?  Can it go online with the same server that she can't?

I've seen similar issues with Vista and somewhat less so with 7, but those
generally resolved themselves with patience.  It's a real shame there is no
"go online NOW, dammit!" button as there was for XP.

Subject: Offline Files not reconnecting

Hey list.

I have a laptop user, Window 7 Pro, who's Desktop and Document folders are
redirected from the server. That way she can use the Offline Files function
to use her laptop while at home.

Now, She can't re-connect to the share! Nothing has changed on the server
end, but I cannot get offline files to go online, then syncing her changes.
She's got a weeks worth of changes on the machine so far... and I don't want
to loose her data.

Permissions are set correctly, as her account can access her home folder on
a different machine. Somehow this laptop just doesn't think it can access
that folder any more.

Any ideas on how to force this thing to reconnect?
