Sounds like you want to use the Distributed File System (DFS). It works, but not perfectly. It's supposed to be better in Win2K3.

I was wondering if there is any feature similar to the "synchronize" option on windows xp to keep online files available when the file server is down. Suppose I have a fileserver that all machines map to an user folder so all users files can be easily managed. Now lets suppose that machine. Is there any way to have another server keep the files synchronized with its own and be able to take over so the client could keep working on his files even though the main fileserver is down? Maybe I should just use the synchronize option as it is already there... Any suggestions/experiences are welcome...
