1.Offline Files - Computer keeps going offline
My computer keeps going into offline state even though I
am still connected to the local area network. If I
syncronize it will reconnect fine. Any ideas how to keep
it online?
2.Offline folders keep going offline
Hi,
On my SBS network, I make use of Offline Folders within XP, mapped to
shares on my SBS server (home areas etc).
Its a simple LAN (one subnet, approx 60 PCs).
CPU of the server is averaged at 10-20%.
However for some reason, my PC and several others keep loosing
connections to the shares, and put themselves in offline mode.
I've checked the event logs of clients/servers, and don't see anything
obvious.
Any tips on debugging why this keeps happening?

3.offline files go offline after a while
My offline files just seem to go 'off line' all the time. When they go
offline, the offline folders (which are mapped as drives) only show the
files that are available offline, and don't try to reconnect.
Possibly my offline files are going offline because of Idle Session Timeout.
On the Server (SBS 2003), at the command line, NET CONFIG SERVER shows
Idle session time (min) 15
This would suggest that if I don't use the network shares for 15 minutes,
they are automatically disconnected.
And that browsing an offline folder does not cause a reconnect.
Is this likely to be the problem? Should I change this setting?
If I futz around with a UNC path to a different folder, I can reconnect, and
the offline folders reconnect.
This is dysfunctional. I would like to have some offline files in some
offline file folders, but when I am connected I would like to see all of the
files in the server folder.
I don't see other people asking about this problem. Am I the only person in
the world who has not shared "all files and folders" in the offline folder?
If not,
any suggestions what should I do to fix this?

4.Offline files - Working offline, what is going on?
I have a couple laptops that are giving me fits.
Windows XP Pro SP3 and up to day.
This was happening long before I installed SP3
File server is 2003 Server.
They keep going "Off line".
There's a little pop-up balloon that pops up and says:
"Offline files - Working offline
You are no longer connected to 'MyServerName'. You can continue working
normally.
Click this icon to view status."
I've made this setting change:
Windows Explorer\Tools\Folder Options, Offline Files tab, Advanced button.
Set to "Never allow my computer to go offline.
I found this information is NewGroup past, but don't know if it's relevent:
This is 100% the SMB signing bug inhtroduced with XP SP1. The workaround
was contained in KB article #331519,
but Microsoft just recently yanked the article with no word, and has
provided no substitute fix. Call MS, quote the article, and get it fixed.
It has to do with turning off all digital signing on your 2k domain
controller.
At one point I thought it was because they had their wireless NIC on at the
same time their LAN NIC was on, but that doesn't seem to be it.
I also thought it might be Symantech's antivirus, but we tried disabling
that and the laptop still goes in to offline mode.
Anyone have an idea what I should be looking for to resolve this???
