First off if you are using local profiles this wont help. Local profiles
will remain its roaming cached profiles that are deleted at log off.
Meaning you will have to script the clean out, use delprof etc...

Subject: [THIN] Re: Remove Profile at Log Off

Thanks for all the reply's...  We're using NT4 domain controllers and
Metaframe XP is running on Windows 2000 Servers.  We don't have roaming
profiles configured so it's using the default profile.

Everybody has mentioned changing the Group Policy to remove the profile
folders.  I'm looking in the group policy and I don't see where this
setting
is.  Can someone help point me in the right direction.

Thanks,
Derek
