How to create a link, for multiple users, to a network share, which itself is on a network share?
Found the answer.  You must create an .afploc file.  This is similar to an .inetloc file.

The easiest way to create a .afploc file:


open Finder
Go -&gt; Connect to Server
type the address in the Connect to Server window (e.g. afp://server.domain.com/
highlight what you just typed (afp://server.domain.com)
grab what you just highlighted and drag it to the desktop (or any folder, presumably) and release
a file named server.domain.com.afploc should be created automatically on your desktop
you can then copy that file anywhere and it will function to automatically start the Go -&gt; Connect to Server process on any mac computer
you can also rename the file if you want, and you can edit its contents to create other .afploc files that point to other servers or paths
you can also use this same process and substitute an smb:// path.  this creates an .inetloc file which works the same way
