Does anyone know how to change the location a shortcut points too that is in the dock?

Here is the situation. We have three labs of computers that we have two accounts. One is student and the other is admin only. We have the student account locked down so they cannot change the dock and lock them out of all possible control panels.

The problem is, we had a server upgrade a few weeks ago and we consolidated two volumes into one on our netware server. Well, silly us, we didn't think about the Mac's at the time. In the dock we have a shortcut that points to the NetWare file server that gives kids access to that drive.

The bummer is, we can set it manually (we imaged the first time with CCC), but first we have to login as admin - give students rights back - login as student set the folder - log back in as admin and take rights away.

Thanks everyone,

dw9
