Offline folders in Windows 7 Professional 64 Bit

Hello,

I am trying to configure offline folders for my laptop with a network drive. I would like to use \\servername\network_share to synchonize on ym laptop for offlnie folders.

I have enabled off-line folders (sync Cneter->manage offline folders)

The network folder does not appear as an option in the "Set up new Sync partnerships"; in fact the system does not list any possibility for sync partnerships.

When I right click a network folder I do not have the option to enable use offline folders.

Can I enable offline folders using UNC and why is it not even an option on my computer?

Thanks,

Mark

What is the OS on which the Share is?
You need to allow offline-folder in the caching-tab of the shared folder.

I am quite new at this. Where do I find the caching Tab?
