xp drive synchronization

hey everyone,

i'm trying to get a laptop running xp to synchronize files on a netware drive, but the "make drive available offline" option is missing. any anyone tell me if there's a way around it? thanks.

I believe if fast user switching is enabled then synch offline files can't be used. Don't know if this will apply to the issue or not.

i don't think that applies to this situation. i am able to synchronize files shared from a windows 98 pc. thanks, though.

I think I found the answer see here It says in the note "The Offline Files feature is not available on Novell NetWare networks."
