Default pb configuring offline files on domain

hi,

i have a domain controller with 4 PCs (4 under XP and 1 under Vista)
i want the desktop to not sync the offline files and laptop do this
sync..

the Vista PC is a desktop PC. all Other PCs (Laptop and Desktop) use
XP.

the pb is, Vista always want to sync (small icon in corner of all icon
on desktop and some other files)

By GPO
i have configured the domain to setup Offline files for laptop, and to
not sync offline files for desktop.

all work good with XP PCs. but Vista seem to ignore this GPO.

can you help me ?

thank a lot

Eric,
So you want the files on the desktop to be available offline but not sync.
Is that correct? I'm curious- why do you need such a functionality?
Also please, let me know the name of the GP that you're setting to achieve
this and check to see if Vista supports this or needs a different one.

Thanks

hi,

no i want vista don't have offline files AND not sync. (Vista PC is
always on the network, then it is not necessary to have Offline files)

i set the GPOs like this : (set to disable) (sorry if sentence is not
exactly the same as on English Windows, mine is French.. )
- Authorize or prohibit the use of the functionality of files off line
- Synchronize all the files except connection before finishing the
session
(this two GPO is under Computer/Admin templates/Network/offline files)

thank a lot

H Eric,
I believe the policy is supposed to work even on Vista. Was your Vista
desktop restarted since the policy was set?

Thanks

Did the machine have offline files enabled before the GP was applied?
Can you let me know what sync partnerships show up in sync center?
Also, please send the ouput of the following commands:
sc query cscservice
sc query csc

Thanks,
Shubhankar
