Thanks, everyone. The information is appreciated.

Howard - yes there should be a better way. The problem I have is that ITS is notified to disable accounts for employees that leave, but to retain their home directory and mailbox until someone can review them. Often this is forgotten and the home directory is never deleted. So enumerating the accounts probably won't help me. The account is gone, but the home directory remains. I thought that by having a script run that looked at each home directory and found a matching user would be helpful IF the script generated a log for the directories without a matching account.
