If it was not clear, that laptop in Therence scenario needs to be joined to
the domain to get It to work.

Hello Richard,
Thank you for posting here.
According to your description, I understand that you want the laptop
client
could use same AutoCAD file when the user at office or at home. If I have
misunderstood the problem, please don't hesitate to let me know.
Based on my research, we do not need to do anything, by default the SBS
client has this function. The client user only need to store the file at
My
Documents. Then the user could access it at office or at home.
1. At SBS, we create user account thru Add User Wizard (Server Management
console\Users node\Add a User link). The wizard will create user account
and computer account for client computer.
2. Then, on the client computer we will access
http://SBSname/connectcomputer to run the connectcomputer wizard to join
the client computer to SBS domain.
After that, the SBS will enable My Documents folder redirection for the
client computer. The client user's My Documents folder in fact store on
SBS
server (C:\Users Shared Folders\UserName\My Documents). Meanwhile, the
offline file function is also enabled for the redirected My Documents.
When the user logon or logoff laptop at office, the local offline My
Documents will sync with the SBS one time. Other time, the user will
access
the local offline file in My Documents.
Therefore, the only thing you need to do is store the AutoCAD file in the
laptop user's My Documents. When the user at home, he/she will access the
offline file in laptop. When the user goes to office, the file will sync
one time with SBS.
I hope that will give you some help.
Thanks and have a nice day!
Best regards,
Terence Liu(MSFT)

| I've got an interesting scenerio and I'm not sure of the best say to
handle
| it. I have and SBS 2003 R2 Std server with several XP Pro clients. For
one
| of these clients they want the ability to work on files either locally
or
| remotely since they are part time in/out of the office. I know the easy
| answer is RWW to connect to network then to internal XP client but the
only
| problem is the files they work on are Autocad type of files and doing
and
RWW
| using Autocad is nothing short of horrible.
|
| Ideally if they could take the files home with them and work on (in an
| Autocad on a home machine not joined to to the domain) them then back
into
| the office and update the office local then it works great. But that
leaves
| it up to the user to remember to USB Key the files or even RWW from home
and
| transfer the files. This can also work but can be slow.
|
| The ultimate is if I could place a folder on their home machine that is
an
| off-line/sync folder with a folder on the server. If they VPN into the
SBS
| network then just sync the folder (either manually or by scheduling at
the
| end of every day) then there would be synced copies at home and at work.
| They work on a file at work.... go home and sync so a copy of the file
is
on
| the home computer.... work on the file... sync again to update the work
| computer.... go back into the office and pick up where they left off.
|
| This user is not technically savvy so I'm trying to come up with an easy
| solution in order for them to work at home and in the office with both
places
| syncing with the latest and greatest data files.
|
| What are peoples thoughts on how to handle this? What are the steps to
set
| up the VPN on the server and client? Does this type of "off-line and
sync on
| demand or schedule" idea have any merit?
