Deleted accounts before running homes - 2004/01/30 15:23 I screwed. I just deleted about 1000 user accounts on edirectory via an ldif file and now I wanted to delete there user directories via Homes. I should of did this first I guess but now what is the best way to get rid of these user directories. Do I need to add all the users back into edirectory before I can use homes to delete these directories. Thanks. Jack

Delete Homedirectories with an Ldif File. - 2004/01/30 16:39 I haven't tested it, but this should work

Use the LDIF-file as the selection file, and leave the other options blanc.
No need to add back the user account!

Success

Delete homedirectory without a user account - 2004/01/30 16:44 Just a question, Why don't you add back the user accouts, all the users will get there homedirectory back?

I found a solution - 2004/02/03 12:01 What I got to work was a bit ugly but did the trick. Basically I originally had a csv file that I converted into an ldif file which I used with homes. Well I went back to my csv file and opened it in excell. Cut all the columns except the username. Put in a column with the command del before the username and a column with /q and saved this as a text file which I then renamed to a .bat "batch file".

So I had a thousand lines like below
del jonesj /q

A bit messy but it worked.
