NAS files, Offline, Sync Centre and windows 8.1

Hello,

I can't believe how difficult it is to locate an essential feature of windows xp and 7 in Windows 8.1! My shiny new 8.1 machine has mapped a folder on a NAS device to its P: drive. This folder is used by a couple of other machines in my small network (both W7) and they have made the folder "available offline" as they need to be able to access the files when away from home. This works fine and files are synchronised on return to the office. 

I cannot find any way to "make the folder available offline" with my 8.1 machine. Sync Centre (in the control panel) wont allow me to create any "partnerships". The nearest I can get to this functionality is SkyDrive but that's not what I need.

This has GOT to be a common requirement, surely? Am I missing something?

Many thanks

Stuart
