A folder redirection GPO network path does not exist anymore because you moved the path to another share and the old one is no more accessible.
You get every login and logout a offline work message (about the old network path) even if the new synchronization works good. Maybe you get error id 106 logged on your application eventlog (network path is not accessible).
I get bored to fix this issue but today I found the final solution; the better way is to restore (if possible) the old network path and to migrate the folder redirection option using GPO features. If this choice is not applicable you have to do this steps to resolve your issue:
1) Put the machine out from Active Directory Domain
2) Re-initialize local offline cache folder using a DWORD regkey at following path with value = 1 (see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/230738/EN-US/ for more details).
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\NetCache
Key Name: FormatDatabase
Key Type: DWORD
Key Value: 1
3) Join the machine to the Active Directory domain
4) After reboot verify that the registry key inserted before was dropped (if still exists, remove it)
5) After moved the machine account to the correct OU, perform a gpupdate /force command and reboot again the machine.
Well, after this, the problem is fixed. Off course you can script all these steps if you want.
