I've got a network drive (Maxtor Shared Storage II) that I would like
to keep in sync with folders on my PC.

Is this possible?
 
Hi Nigel,

If you haven't already, you might want to check out Vista's offline file
feature.

Although I get a sense this may not be quite what you have in mind.
Unfortunately, Vista doesn't have the capability to live sync folders
between PCs on a network. But here's a free service you might want to look
into. A caveat: I haven't tried it on my own home network, but have heard
good things.

Hope this helps. Please let me know how it works out.

What if you have Home Premium, since Offline Files are not part of that
version?
