I changed which files get synced using Workgroup Manager a few days ago. I have tried everything I can think of but my laptop still uses the old settings. In Workgroup Manager, I pick machines, accounts. Then pick the machine group. Then pick cache. Then hit "Sync now". I also have it set to update the preferences cache ever 24 hours. I assume that is going both ways.

I've also tried rebooting the laptop.

The old settings said to exclude ~/Library. The new settings are more detailed. I'm pretty sure that the laptop is still using the old settings. There is nothing in the log file about ~/Library getting synced.

Can anyone suggest what to do?
 
I went into "Directory Access" (in Applications/Utilities), clicked Authentication. Switched from Automatic to local. Rebooted. Then I did the reverse and switched it back to Automatic. Rebooted again. That seems to have fixed my problem. I'm not sure if the two reboots are necessary.

Of course, YMMV.
