I have a SBS 2003 Premium running the default "Companyweb" Sharepoint site. I also have a 5-6gb directory of documents (in various subdirs of course) on a shared drive. Is it possible to have Sharepoint mirror this shared directory, so that users can access these files from the web? I'm thinking that there might be a 3rd party web part for it, but any input is welcome... Best regards, Kasper Hansen

Thanks - but how did you get SyncToy to add the files to the sharepoint library? Do the sharepoint libraries map to acutal folders on the server? I thought that files were stored in the database.

If you take a document library to Explorer View, copy the address and paste that into the synctoy folder it will sync files for you. Alternatively you can map a sharepoint document library to a drive and sync with that. Hope that helps, David.
