I'm taking a poll here.....

I utilize the reboot method for keeping my Citrix boxes clean.  The reboot
script I've compiled performs several needed functions before and after
reboot.  Basically, when one of my boxes reboots it has been defragged
(file, registry, event logs, and pagefile), spool cleaned out, temp files
cleaned out, old profiles removed (20 days or older), etc......

I've heard of others using a re-ghosting method and then using the
Installation Manager to redistribute the packages.  For example, they might
re-ghost every month versus rebooting every night.  

Just curious.  How many of you are utilizing the second option and why did
you choose this over the reboot nightly?

Thanks.
