Redirected My Documents, but Sync Pending

I have My Documents redirected to a DFS share, but somehow they started to
not want to sync. If I ask it to sync, it becomes Sync Pending, and stays
Pending forever. Applied SP1, thought it would help, but still it goes to
Sync Pending, and doesn't go any further. Any help?

"My Documents" does not exist in Vista; that is in XP.
Clarify what you are doing!

Re: Redirected My Documents, but Sync Pending

Yes, but My Documents redirection policy exists among Windows Server 2003
policies. That's why I'm redirecting My Documents, not Documents. XP boxes
get redirected nicely, but Vista ones don't. I don't think, that I need to
create a special redirection policies for Vista, do I? Especially, when I
remember a time, when Syncing was working nicely before, and I don't think I
have changed anything -- except, that I was constantly patching my Vista
with the latest updates.

Normally, when I open a Sync Center, and doubleclick on Offline Files, there
was \\domain.com\DFSShare listed... But now, it's not there. Something is
wrong.

Regards,
