We've always used local accounts on our client machines, with users
logging into the file server via Command-K or a .afploc "alias". Now
we're setting up network logins.
Our users' accounts and home directories are created by shell script,
not by WGM. Thus, they don't automatically get a homedir based on the
User Template. They don't automatically have a Library or Desktop or
any other directory within their home directory.
So if I log onto a client machine, using a server-based account, my
server-based home directory mounts, with a newly-created Library and
Desktop, as well as a dock full of question marks (files that aren't in
our build that the default dock prefs expect).
Where is the default dock being drawn from? There is no
com.apple.dock.plist file in any User Template/Library/Prefs directory,
either on the server or the client. I'd rather change a template than
have to script a solution, if possible.
For that matter, where are the new Desktop and Library being copied
from, or are they just empty directories, populated with files as necessary?
