Remove Profile on Log Out

Hi,

We have a machine that is used by over 20 people in the course of a week.

This machine gets the profiles of each of these users copied over to it whenever they first logon, of which some are gigs of data.

We then reach the point where the HDD reaches its capactiy and the next person cannot log on unless they already have a profile copied to the machine!

Is there a way of logging the user out, synchronising with the server on which the profiles are kept and then deleting the profile.

I understand this would make each logon take longer, but would stop the space being used and requiring me to delete profiles.

Or can this be set on a per user basis?

THANKS

Any feedback is feedback!
 
You could use gpedit.msc to enable 'delete cached copies of roaming profiles' under the admin template / system / user profiles settings.
 
thread779-550783 has a number of possible solutions for you i think.
 
I use the group policy object suggested above and it works very well.

Paul
