What is the equivalent of folder redirection in Linux?
I would say the closest analogy would be a symlink to an NFS mount
that's outside of /home, but not exactly. it's not really as simple
as just a symlink.

Hi
I'm coming to back to Windows after a 12 year absence so please forgive my
questions.
Just coming back to my original post for a moment,
e.g.
I create a file and store it on my desktop.
roaming profile
It is stored locally until I log off whereupon it is synced to the server.
Miguel - please stop sending to me directly, I am on the list.

Folder Redirection will always (I think - or maybe Samba has a way to

accomplishes is it saves all of the copying back and forth when

NO,

Yes, there's a way to do that. But it doesn't solve the problem of
having to transfer maybe hundreds of megabytes or even worse each time

You are introducing a new theme altogether: Offline Files. On a local
and *reliable* network, you can use folder redirection *without* Offline
Files. I did it and it works.
What you describe is the behavior of normal *roaming profiles*.
