Server based home folders and Entourage DB

C

Clivey

Hello.
Given that our users log using a OS X Server based home, is it possible
to redirect the Entourage DB from the default area of
<user/Douments/Microsoft User Data> to (say) a local drive? It would
save a load of network traffic.
Thanks for any input.

You could drag the Microsoft User Data folder to the local drive, delete the
copy on the server, and then Option-Command-drag it back to the Documents
folder on the server to create an alias there. However, this will cause
problems if the user logs into another computer and can't access the folder
on the other machine.

Note that you need to quit all Microsoft Office applications before
attempting this.
