Adding a Link to the Dock

I would like to add a link to the dock of each user. I'd like the link to use a custom icon as well.

What's the easiest way to do it? I've tried dockutil but it won't let me use the custom icon.

In the past I have created an AppleScript exported as a run only Application with the following code;

open location "http://google.com"

You're then able to add your icon, package and deploy as an application.

This is the method I've used in the past and it works pretty well.

However, if you need the icon to open the page in a specific browser rather than default one, you'll have to find another solution.

I hope this helps!
