Hi there,
I wonder if someone could give me a pointer or two on getting rid of Windows 98 profiles using kix32.
I basically want to remove all user profiles except for our admin profile so that I can add some new .DEFAULT USER registry settings to lock down some thing that users shouldnt be messing with.
I have tried using the move and delete functions but because the user profile is being accessed it wont allow me to rename the profiles or delete it.
I also tried what I think may work, which was a script to create a list of the folders and run through them and it was supposed to delete only the ones not listed...
Here it is (PROFLIST is a plain text file containing the directories under c:\windows\profiles)
OPEN (1,"C:\PROFLIST.TXT",2)
$c = ReadLine(1)
$x = UCASE($c)
WHILE @ERROR = 0
SELECT
CASE $x = "ADMINISTRATOR"
? "Admin account found ... not deleting"
CASE $x = "ALL USERS"
? "All Users account found ... not deleting"
CASE $x = "IESETUP"
? "IE6 account found ... not deleting"
CASE $x = "GHOST"
? "Ghost User account found ... not deleting"
CASE 1
Open(2,"C:\PROFDEL.TXT",5)
WriteLine(2,"Removed the following profiles: " + @CRLF)
WriteLine(2,$x + @CRLF)
DEL "C:\OPROFILE\" + $x + "\*.*" /h /d
DEL "C:\WINDOWS\PROFILES\" + $x + "\*.*" /h /d
ENDSELECT
$c = ReadLine(1)
$x = UCASE($c)
LOOP
Close (1)
Close (2)

This is causing me some brainache due to each machine is going to have different user accounts on so I dont want to add specific deletions for any one of the 500 plus accounts.
Any help would be appreciated.
