windows 7 my documents folder redirected

I have a Windows 7 installation that we are implementing and I need to put the My Documents directory on each desktop as default.
The location of eveyone's document directory is
\\servername\users$\%username%\User's Documents
Folder redirection is turned on and is working but I still need to have that folder on the desktop since the users won't know how to add it on the desktop themselves
So, after the users 'Desktop Incons - Users's Files' icon is on the desktop, I want to remove all the Icons/Folders beneath that directory except for the Desktop, Favorites,  and My Documents directories

I understand what you are saying. I will set that up tonight to test.
One of the great mysteries to me is why people map My Doc's to server
(\\servername\users$\%username%\User's Documents).
senad, where would you map them to then?
