Is there a way configure "My Network Places" so that you do not have to start at the "Entire Network" icon but can start at the server level?

It's unclear of what your ultimate goal is, but you can make a shortcut to the entire network on your desktop (right-click-hold-and-drag to the desktop and then select create shortcut), remove the "my network places" icon, and then rename that shortcut to "My Network Places" and even change the icon if you'd like.

If you are refering that you want to start at a certain share or server you have to do the following.
When you 2x click Network Neighborhood you can do "add networkplace" \\servername\sharename. and that will be your starting point then. I believe you can make a shortcut of that on your desktop.

Leopold.
