I have two Windows Server 2008 SP2 machines. Occasionally I see that when I open a file share with net use, the contents are stale. The scenario is:

  1. net use Z: \\192.168.0.100\c$
  2. Add a file to a directory on the C: drive on C:'s host machine
  3. I don't see the file on the networked machines Z: drive.

It eventually appears but I can't figure out how to speed up this process when it occurs. Simply refreshing the directory does not help. Doing a "net use /d Z:" and re-adding it doesn't work either.

Any ideas what is causing this or how to fix it?

Look at the properties of the share. Make sure that under Caching you have selected No files or programs from the shared folder are available offline
