XP Sync confusion

J

I understand how to sync a network share to a WinXP notebook, but the result
is that if there are 30 files in 10 folders on the network share, the result
on the notebook after a sync will be 30 files in one folder called the
"Offline Files Folder".

I want to sync the local "My Documents" with the user's home folder on the
server without moving the local "My Documents" folder to the server so that
it is accessible when the notebook is not connected to the network.

Can this be done natively in XP because I can't figger out how?

The only thing I can think is you don't have your "My Documents"
folder set to share.

Right click on it and choose the "Security and Sharing" option. Tell
it to share to the network. It'll warn you, but do it anyway.

The folder should now appear on the network.
