I need to deploy a website shortcut icon only to a desktop.

Just received our pro license for our school district and now learning the methods. Can anyone tell me how to do this to multiple, multiple desktops in our AD environment. I have deployed normal packages but that's my limit on what I know at this point.

Thanks.

create a new package.

in this package you want to setup one step that is a "COPY" step.
Tell it the location of the file and then the Target Destination on the remote computer that you want to file copied to. Example:

File: \\networkShare\folder\shortcutname.lnk

Destination: C:\users\Public\Desktop\

Check off the options you want, like overwrite the file if it already exists.

That should be it, now deploy this new package you created to the computers you want. You can deploy in a number of ways.

Active Directory - Select computers from an OU
SpiceWorks - computer is your spiceworks inventory (if you use spiceworks)
PDQ Inventory - Deploy to computers in your inventory or to a Dynamic collection you have setup.
