What kind of server, NAS system?  We use a NAS dual drive mirroring over Cat 6 Ethernet through a 1 gig/s switch as a mapped drive.  Been doing that for 15 years. 

We have the NAS server as well and just discovered it works if the view is e-file Clients vs All Clients. Seems like a bug in the program.

we had to reset the view when clients would only pull in if we selected efile clients.  Call Lacerte support and they can walk you through this.  It was pretty easy.

Also have you checked Network permissions to your Lacerte Folder for the user at the second workstation?

You need to go to:

Settings\primary options\setup  

and change the data path  to the server or whatever computer has the client data.

and the same for the next one down  (shared k-1 data path).

Note this is done on the other computers on the network.
