I read that about the network not handling pst files not very efficiently.
Not sure I got that point about possibly corrupting the pst. Thanks.

Attendant? Do you mean making sure only one access is occurring?

Well, that's one.

Saw something about accessing a pst over a network could be slow I
think.
Certainly poses the question in my mind if that would be like accessing
any
file across a network or if there is something special relating to pst
files.
Some problems including that may have went away with 2K3 with the move
to
unicode? Seems I need to look into what that is. Right now my best guess
for
speeding up in that fashion is some sort of preshared translator chart
so
you don't have to send every bit of data.

From what I've read, the I/O protocols used to access a network object are
somewhat different that those used to access a local object and that the
I/O
required to access PSTs is not well-handled by network I/O. So, minor
network interruptions may have a negative impact on the integrity of a
network-hosted PST. Most of the time, it should work just fine, but there
are more chances of PST corruption when it's accessed over the network as
compared to a locally accessed PST. Just make regular good backups and
you
should be covered.
