Currently we redirect AppData and My Documents. If we also have offline files enabled it should automatically makes these folders available offline yes? Is it only these folders that are tagged available offline or is it the entire profile as it appears to do funning things with folders under C:\Documents and Settings\Username\AppName like create lots of conflict files in the AppName folder when it should not even be replicating with a network location. I'm slightly confused as to why it would be wanting to sync these folders.

Hi John and everyone, Sorry, this is not really an answer but - In XP (Vista ?), by default when you use GPO Folder Redirection, the offline Files are activated. So, you have to disable the offline files if it is not needed. - Never forget to link a Computer GPO only to computer and idem for user (exception : loopback).
