Premium group account. All have individual sub accounts. 5 computers synching with a share perfectly except:
SOMETIMES (don't you hate that word)
Machine A deletes a file or more usually subdirectory locally
User A sees file disappear from local drive
File disappears from SYNCed folder on server
File usually disappears from local folder of machine B and C
Note I said Usually
Sometimes, particularly if a machine eg D has been offline and comes online, though this is not the ONLY time, instead of deleting its local copy, it replaces it back onto the server which then propagates the file to ALL clients.
In short the file never dies!!!!!
Been fighting this a while. Tried:
a) Checking time stamps on files on all machines - seem ok
b) Tested to see if its always the same machine or combination - No its not
c) Deleting the whole share and starting again - same problem
All machines running Windows XP SP2 and FileHQ4.0269
Mapping to a hard drive like you used to before I joined would be much easier.!
Whilst the system is failing safe ie no files re being deleted, this is becoming a pain in the proverbial as users move files around in their shared workspace.
Open to suggestions.
