We have installed the Box sync app on one of our servers, we want to achieve is that a local network shared folder worked upon by a group of users, should get synced on Box cloud using the app. But when we install the app and try using a shared folder within Box folder the local network sharing starts creating sharing and permission issues.


We would require your assistance to achieve a local network shared folder among few domain users to sync on Box cloud using Box syncing app.
