Question about My Documents
Sorry if this has already been answered, however Google has not helped me.
All I want to do is link the "start --> documents" to a remote folder on a file server. This shouldn't be hard at all, however right-clicking the "documents" link and clicking "properties" produces no way to simply redirect that link to a remote server.
Here is the local path I'm trying to give to "Documents":
\\192.168.1.80\shared\jasonmicron
If I try to tell Windows 7 to include that path I get this error message:
"This network location can't be included because it is not indexed."
The kicker here - my file server is running Linux, Fedora 10 to be exact. Yes, SAMBA is working just fine. It was working just fine 2 hours ago before I installed Windows 7.
Why that matters is beyond me. All I want is for the Documents link to map to my file server. Why is this so impossible?
-------------
If you're wondering *why* I desire this, it is because I save everything to My Documents from XP. Everything saved there goes to my server which is in a mirrored RAID setup.
