A. It is possible to explicitly define the UNC for the favourites folder for each user by editing the registry. The steps would be as follows
- Choose a server that will host the favourites (favorites for all you Americans :-) ) folder, and create a favourties folder on it
- Set the required permissions on the folder so that the users can read it (and add to it if you want that, probably not) and make sure it is shared
- Fill the folder with the required links etc.
- On the PDC edit each user entry and using the registry editor (regedit.exe), change the Favorites value in the "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders" key to the path of the common favourties folder, e.g. \\pdcmain\favourites,then click OK
