    Is there any way of mirroring a network folder onto a Laptop ??

    All my stuff in work gets written directly to a network drive & backed up overnight - that suits me fine when I'm in work, but when I'm out fo the office - I'd like to have the info on my laptop.

    RAS dial in is not an option, nor is writing solely to my laptop as i need the stuff backed up in work

    any thoughts

    just use offline folders

    map a drive to the server

    then right click the folder and click make available off line this way you can edit the files at home and they will be updated the next time you log on

    Doh - thanks got it....

    I had been looking for the ofline folders option but couldn't find it - guessed they'd killed it under XP Pro - just realised it doesn't work with fast switching enabled..

    All is well again !

    Thanks
