Hi,

I am having a problem with offline files not being synchronised. When a user logs off they are given a synchronisation failed message saying 'Unable to make 'call256.dbb' available offline' and 'files of this type cannot be made offline'. I have followed the instructions from this page: created a group policy called 'offline files' and excluded the relevant extentsions. I literally copied and pasted the extensions from the list but where *.db? appears I changed it to *.dbb . I then rebooted the machine.

I ran the gpresult command to see if the group policy was being run on the machine and it is, here is a copy of the results:

COMPUTER SETTINGS
-----------------

CN=GERMANY, CN=Computers, DC=domainname, DC=com
Last time Group Policy was applied: 02/05/2007 at 11:05:36
Group Policy was applied from: servername.domainname.com
Group Policy slow link threshold: 500 kbps

Applied Group Policy Objects
----------------------------

Default Domain Policy
MMC Firewall Exception
Windows Update
Offline Files

The following GPOs were not applied because they were filtered out:
------------------------------------------------------
Local Group Policy
Filtering: Not Applied (Empty)

The computer is a part of the following security groups:

Can anyone help me on this problem. If you need to ask me anything I'll be happy oblige. Its more of a niggly thing. A few users thing there work is not saving etc so would like for this message to go.

Thanks in advance.
