Hey,
We are doing this- We use roaming profiles and if you are using AD, then set up a GPO here: UserConfig\Admin Templates\System\Logon Logoff\ you will see "Exclude Directories in Roaming Profile" Enable this and make sure you specify which DIRs you want to purge when a user logs off of Citrix so that the DIR does not get copied back.

Have FUN!!

Hi,

we do this deletion every night when we boot our terminal servers with a little perl script. so i recommend to you look after a genius which can program in perl
this works really fine

best regards

Or you could install IE6 wich have the option to delete Temp Internet files after closin internet explorer. There is a policy for this so you dont have to change it for every profile. where? i have no idea!

To do it manually...

I have done it every couple of weeks or once a month.

Open windows explorer, move to c:\documents and settings. Do a search on "T.IE5".

It will give you folders named "Content.IE5"

Delete all except the Default User. It will give you a warning about these files being system files, Ignore.

I have not had an issue doing it this way and have not run into an issue.

Thanks
Sir Stox

I am trying to implement the GPO mentioned. I have set up a test user in a test OU where I have created a new GP. I have tested other items on that user like disable task manager, disable change password, etc and all that works. But I can't get the "exclude directories in roaming profile" to work. I removed that users profile from all the Citrix servers (Doc & Sett) and I don't see the Temporary Internet Files under the main folder on our AD server. But when I log that user on to one of the Citrix servers, the TIF folder gets copied and stays there after I log the user off. Any ideas what I could be doing wrong?
Thanks for all the help, our profile sizes are really getting out of hand.
