Is there not any way to do this now? There MUST be! Anyone know how to do it? Along these lines, for some reason the apps on my dock do not reappear when I logout and log back in. Our NeXT is in a yp/nfs environment, and hence my home directory is on another machine. However, no one else I have spoken to here has the same problem, even though their account is yp and nfs served as well. The permissions don't seem to be the problem. Any ideas?
