Default Problems synchronisation files

I have a problem with synchronization folders/files. Few months ago they
changed the server were I was synching files against. I removed all the
offline files on the computer linked to that old server and made a new
synchronization against the new server.
Now the PC still search for the old server - and in the explorer I cannot
enter into the remaining folder at the old server.
Anyone have any suggestion?

Default Problems synchronisation files

Clear the IE cache. (IE, tools, Options, Delete Files button, include offline
content.)

Default Problems synchronisation files

Since the answer isn't found here and I had about the same type of problem, I
decided to list what I did.

In my case, there wasn't suppose to be outline files setup. There was peer
to peer network and one of the desktops was set up as a file server to store
the shared files. The network was moved to a Windows Server 2008, the files
on file server desktop were moved to the Windows Server 2008 and the shares
on the former file server desktop were unshared. At that point one of the
user complained that there was a message Offline FilesLatfilesvrDocuments on
FileServer(Latfilesvr)unable to connect to \LatfilesvrDocuments The network
name cannot be found.

The link http://blogs.msdn.com/jonathanh/arch...21/218463.aspx is
quite long but the conclusion is one has to use CSCCMD to fix the problem.

I download and installed the Windows Server 2003 Resource Kit Tools.
I located the CSCCMD instructions at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/884739
However I found I could not use the share name from Windows Explorer, tools,
synchronize
I found the share name at HKEY_CURRENT_USER, Software, Microsoft, Windows ,
CurrentVersion, NetCache, Shares.
I ran the CSCCMD but still found I had to go back and delete the share name
at
HKEY_CURRENT_USER, Software, Microsoft, Windows , CurrentVersion, NetCache,
Shares
Then I uninstalled the Windows Server 2003 Resource Kit Tools

Hello again, sorry, this didn't work out. Is there anywhere else to edit
synchronisation in the win-system?
