The easiest way would be to create a share on the server and create a shortcut to that share. You don't need an app for that. When the user runs the shortcut, a window opens to C:\temp on the server. Of course, this only works if you are on the same LAN as the server. The shortcur would refer to the share as

\\servername\sharename

You would also have to create a group on the server and add the users who require access to the server folder to that group. You then assign appropriate rights to the group.
