I work in a domain setting where the domain is managed by Active Directory. The macs are set up with domain logins, no local profiles. I am trying to set the default dock for Mavericks. I used to copy the com.apple.dock.plist file into the template English.proj in the system templates file (basic instructions for Mountain Lion). Everything I have read about Mavericks docks settings suggest that I cannot set the dock for all users any more this way because of cached preferences?
All I see in preferences now is com.apple.dockfixtup.com? I tried copying that file over and it did not work. I usually follow these instructions https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/100188/osx-10-8-how-to-keep-a-custom-dock-for-all-users-that-login
Anyone have any way of setting the dock preferences for all users that login?
Thank you for your time.

Have you tried restarting the dock process for all users yet? You'll have to run this from all users' accounts after the PLIST file has been moved or run it for them:
killall Dock
. Hopefully this will reset the cache and update any preferences. – Caleb Xu – 2014-01-10T00:18:43.023
