offline files sync problem coming out of hibernation

C

I have an XP PRo computer connected to a Win 2000 domain, with offline files
configured (My Documents and Desktop). Both folders are redirected and
Available Offline. This is setup in a GPO and works fine. Except I have one
Sony VAIO laptop that has a problem synchronizing offline files when coming
out of Hibernation. The user hibernates her PC, then comes into the office
plugs it in and brings it out of hibernation. The system aquires a new IP
address and can get on the internet. But the little blue and white computer
icon down by the clock keeps telling her she needs to sync her offline files.
If she double clicks this icon and starts a sync, then everything works
fine. But before she does that she cannot access any network shares, or
network printers.
Under the offline files syncronization setup, I have enabled sync during
logon and logoff, and at random times during the day. Isn't there a way to
tell the system to sync automatically when it comes out of hibernation and
connects to a new network? The user finds it difficult to remember to
manually start the sync, and usually panics when she cannot print or access
the server shares.
Thanks for any help.
