Setting Up Offline Files
If you use redirected folders of any type, it is recommended that you set up Offline Files. However, Offline Files does not depend on settings in the Folder Redirection node and is set up and configured on network shares separately from the Folder Redirection configuration. The tasks for implementing Offline Files are:
1.Configure the sharepoint.Configure computers to use Offline Files.
3.Synchronize offline files and folders.
Configuring the Sharepoint The first step in setting up Offline Files is to configure the sharepoint. You configure the sharepoint in the Sharing tab in the Properties dialog box for the shared folder.
To configure the sharepoint, complete the following steps:
1.Right-click the shared folder containing the offline files and select Sharing And Security.
2.In the Sharing tab in the Properties dialog box for the shared folder, click Offline Settings.
3.In the Offline Settings dialog box, shown in n10-004 network, select one of the following:
Only The Files And Programs That Users Specify Will Be Available Offline. Select this option if you want users to be able to determine -which files will be available offline.
All Files And Programs That Users Open From The Share Will Be Automatically Available Offline. Select this option if you want all files that users open from the shared resource to be automatically available offline. Select the Optimized For Performance check box if you want to automatically cache programs so they can be run locally. This option is useful for file servers that host applications because it reduces network traffic and improves server scalability.
Files Or Programs From The Share Will Not Be Available Offline. Select this option to prevent users from storing files offline.
In Windows Server 2003, Remote Desktop for Administration (formerly known as Terminal Services in Remote Administration mode in Windows 2000) provides remote
access to the desktop of any computer running a member of the Windows Server 2003 family. Remote Desktop for Administration is installed by default on computers running Windows Server 2003 but is not enabled by default. If Remote Desktop for Administration is enabled on a server, you cannot configure the server to use Offline Files because the Remote Desktop for Administration and Offline Files features are mutually exclusive. Therefore, before attempting to configure a server to use Offline Files, you must disable Remote Desktop for Administration. To do this on the server, right-click My Computer and select Properties. In the System Properties dialog box, select the Remote tab. In the Remote Desktop section, clear the Allow
Users To Connect Remotely To This Computer check box, and then click OK. Then configure the server to use Offline Files as described in the procedure “Configuring computers and servers to use Offline Files” in this section. Because Remote Desktop for Administration is now separate from
free CompTIA practice tests Terminal Services, it is no longer necessary to install Terminal Services.
