Maverick Network Home On Desktop

[Andy2789]

I am hoping somebody can help before I launch 100 Mac's out of the window. We recently upgraded all our Mac's and the server onto Maverick, everything appears to work fine. As we know in recent released AD Network homes Map onto the dock now rather than the 'House' Home.

 

However my students appear to be struggling with this as saving work means saving to the Mac and then dragging onto the Dock as there is no direct method of getting to the share. Is there a way of mapping the users AD Network home to the Desktop? I have seen some scripts knocking about, however my issue is the students homes are broken down into server\studenthome\yeargroup\Username so a single script wouldn't work. There are so many Plists on the student group on the Apple server to risk breaking them into sub groups.

 

Or could I use one of the scripts with several entries and it not to show an error message? Or does somebody have the answer to my prayers!

 

Any help gratefully received on this!
