I am implementing a pair of filers that will host users home direcotries. These driectories will be used via Windows Folder Redirection, so that they appear as windows my documents folders. all invisible to the users.

I also plan to have snapshots enabled to allow the users to do their own file recovery. However As an additional feature we will implement clisen side caching or Offline files in windows. whcih caches the redirected folder locally. However this will also cache the ~snapshot folder thus increasing the used storage on the local client as will will include all of the snapshots that are available. How do I stop the caching of the ~snapshot folder ????
