Multiple users on a terminal server

Hi folks. I've been searching everywhere but can't seem to find the answer to my specific question, at least the way I've been able to explain it, so here I am.

My company is running a terminal server, multiple users in multiple groups, private folders for each group. Parallels's built-in folder syncing doesn't quite meet our needs so we're hoping Box can fill the need. We want to basically have a folder each group can save files to, and have those files automatically synced back to a local computer.

I've found that should theoretically work with a single user, and there is a lot of discussion of syncing multiple users with a single folder (mostly with the answer of "no"), but we're looking at multiple accounts syncing with their own unique folder. We're mostly dealing with small files, but on occasion a lot of them at a time.

Is this possible at all? If so, how? If not... any suggestions?

Thanks for the reply. That's actually one of the first articles I found. It's helpful but I'm not clear. Is this saying that even with multiple users with multiple Box accounts, only one location can be mounted as a sync folder for the entire server?
