All the machines have Deep Freeze on them. The teacher allows them to
sit anywhere so they are rarely on the same machine.

Karl,
The student's document shouldn't be lost. All they need to do is log
into
the PC they were actually on. Unless you have a deep freeze like
solution
that wipes any changes, Windows have local profile that stays on the
machine. If student A sits at the same PC every day, then the
changes and
files saved to the desktop will be there every time they log in. If
they
goes to another PC, that PC creates another local profile. So, look
on the
machine the document was saved on. You just might find it.

Really that makes sense, and I have no problem with just saying save
to the Z Drive, but I had a kid the other day save a document to the
desktop instead of the z drive and lost his work. I didn't really
feel to bad about it, just wanted to see if I could prevent it from
happening again.

Karl,
It sounds like you want a roaming profile. Most schools shy away from
roaming profiles. They take a lot of network resources to push the
desktop/profile over the network every time some logs in. Why save
to the
desktop and not just to the students home folder? Maybe I am
confused on
what you are doing with the Mac/PC integration.

OK so I have all my windows computers authenticate through my OSX
servers running 10.4.x. Every user can access their docs that auto
mounts as drive Z, but when they save something to the WIndows
desktop
it gets lost. What setting am I missing in Workgroup manager that
will allow them to drop documents on the windows desktop, or make
shortcuts on the desktop and have them be there whenever they log
into
a windows computer. I know that if they don't put their files in
the Z
drive they will not be available on a Mac when they log-in.
