Audacity already copies MP3 files in, so there is no Audacity setting that will help if MP3 files also don't import on some machines.
QoS settings (which determine which packets are prioritised) may be of some relevance here, and can usually be prioritised by application in server OS'es, as well as (obviously) by IP address. pmiz would have to discuss that with the school/college IT Manager.

Gentlemen
Thank you for all your advice. I found the simplest solution is to identify the computers that will import files and let the kids sign on to those machines. Although Audacity might not be network friendly, it does work on the network.
Thanks again for all of your help.
