Offline Folder
Title: Message Hope someone can help with this... I have a user who has just taken possession of a shiny new Laptop with Windows XP and Office XP (Outlook 2002). I have set up his Email to look at Exchange Server without any probs. I had to then set up offline folder for him and setup syncronising etc. The problem is this. He has a profile on the same machine that does NOT connect to the server, rather he logs into the Laptop OS itself How do I setup Outlook to use the Offline Folder (OST) file in his other profile (ie the profile he uses to connect to company Network ? If this isnt the best way to do it, have you any other suggestions ?? It has been suggested that he can log onto the laptop with his Network username and password, and get logged in, even though the laptop isnt connected to it. Explanation being the laptop willl hold details of recent loggins. If that is the case, how long does the details get held ?? If this is the case and holds it for long period of time, it would negate the need to have a local loggin at all. Cheers Graham Cathcart I.T. Information Officer G.E.D.C. Ltd Tel.

Using Offline Folder
Hi, All I am using Exchange 5.5 with Outlook 2000. I already set the filter to restrict the message size for Notebook user, but how they know what email messages are being restricted. Any log will show the email header information. Best Regards, Alex Chan MIS Dept. List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm
RE: Offline Folder
Title: Message I think your confusion lies with the meaning of set the user up locally. The laptop needs to hold details of the users NETWORK account login. Start | Settings | Control Panel | Users and Passwords This info will be used to authenticate the logon when disconnected from the network. This will work permanently, and it updates any changes such as passwords whenever it logs onto the network Cheers Matt -Original Message-From: Graham Cathcart [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]Sent: 29 May 2002 11:12To: MS-Exchange Admin IssuesSubject: Offline Folder Hope someone can help with this...

What I left below is how I would do it as well.

RE: Offline Folder
Title: Message I have a user who has been doing this for several years. The only complaint I have had from him was the day he decided to log on to the network from a desktop machine in the office instead of setting up his laptop and not all of the shortcuts he had on his desktop worked because the desktop did not have all the programs he uses installed. -Original Message-From: Jones Matt [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]Sent: Wednesday, May 29, 2002 6:39 AMTo: MS-Exchange Admin IssuesSubject: RE: Offline Folder I think your confusion lies with the meaning of set the user up locally.

Re: Offline Folder
Title: Message you don't want any local accounts on the lap top. delete the local account and profile. have them log in on the network. then when they are away the laptop/xp will see no network connection and log them in with the cached account info. Always try to log in to the domain with the laptop. if they try and do a dialin or vpn they are ready. offline folders only works with the network profile.

Outlook 2000 offline folder sync problem
Outlook 2000 clients get an exception in OUTLOOK.EXE when opening. This just started happening on O2K clients that use offline folders a couple days ago. Believe it or not, we have 98 clients that are syncing just fine (go figure). The server end is 2K server w/Exch 5.5 SP4. Here's what we've tried: New profile New .ost Has anyone run into this before?? Thanks in advance. Tom List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm
