Default Offline Files - Sync Centre always shows 'Sync Pending' but nothing happens


Can someone please help?

I have a Dell Vostro 1700 laptop running Vista Ultimate with SP1
applied, which I use to sync up with my companies shared folder via VPN
on an SBS2003 domain.
This all worked OK from setup 2 or 3 months ago but for some strange
reason has now stopped working. I have tried disabling and re-enabling
'Offline Files'. I have re-initialised the offline cache using the
modify registry method but niether have worked.
I have mapped the remote company folder to a drive letter and when I
right click and select 'Always Available Offline' I get a brief message
saying 'Completed preparing files so they are always available offline'
but if I right click again it hasn't stuck. Same thing if I get
'Properties' of mapped drive and select the 'Offline File' tab then tick
the 'Always Available Offline' check box then OK - re-open 'Properties'
- 'Offline Files' tab the check box is unticked.
Viewing the disk usage from the 'Offline File' control panel both
'Offline files' and 'Temporary files' are at 0 bytes. Sync Centre shows
no errors but does show 'Sync started' and 'Sync completed' within a
minute of each other. Needless to say nothing has synced and I have no
files to use offline.

If anyone has any ideas, they would be much appreciated.

Thanks
Steve
