I'd never do symbolic links/aliases that way, for that very reason.

I've done the Simmelink thing before, however, you need to be very careful. As if you are sharing a folder and someone in another state moves that folder you will lose your stuff. I lost about two gigs of stuff when I put a link in a shared folder it uploaded and one of my friends decided to be cute and move the folder out not knowing that it would disappear from my external drive. That was fun. So be very careful and make sure it's not a folder that you share.

Good luck.

I don't think so. The whole point of Dropbox is to put things inside your Dropbox folder.

Hello everybody

Is there a way to synchronise files which live outside of your DropBox master folder so that they appear on other devices?

Thank you.
