Hi,
neither Alfresco itself nor the standard clients (explorer, share) does provide an offline functionality. You might try out the microsoft function "Make available offline" for network drives (using CIFS or Webdav) or the Microsoft robocopy tool, I never testet that with alfresco drives.

Or you check out the alternate clients, beeing developed in the community : Flexspaces, Opsoro, Docasu, I think they plan for that.

Let us know what your testresults are.

The AIR version of FlexSpaces has a "Make Available Offline" in its Tools" menu (and an "Update from offline" menu too). The offline files are stored in <user's Document folder>/FlexSpaces/<alfresco path /Company/Home/etc >/filename
Also in the air version: files viewed online are cached in <document folder>/FlexSpaces/Viewed/<alfresco path>/filename (and are available offline)
