Re: using folder redirection and offline files in multi site wan!

Todd,

Thank you for your response. Wouldn't I be able to utilized slow link
detection in this situation. From what I have researched it seems that the
machine will send ICMP pings to its site domain controller where files are
held and if the link is lower than what I specify it will not process the
folder redirection policy. My only question here is out to make the client
machines switch over to the cached copy of documents and not the local
profile? Also, would a WMI filter be feasible in this situation? Stating
something along the lines of testing ping responses and not processesing the
policy if the query does not meet a value set in the query?
