10.5: Create a custom Dock for the Guest account

I got it to work fine. The fact that it *did* work when I'm not running server was something I never would have expected. I entered 127.0.0.1 for the server address and used an admin name/password, and things worked wonderfully.

Better still, this didn't overwrite any of the other customizations I had made -- Workgroup Manager only adjusts the files it actually needs to change.

(Of course, tinkering with other settings for things like System Preference access is a nice added bonus to this whole process.)

Thanks for the time-saver!
