Hehe, true, and no problem, I just went back and reread your post, looks
like I misinterpreted what you were asking anyways. I thought you were
trying to figure out how to configure the server to prevent people from
deleting certain things on Novell, but it looks like you just wanted
some scripting help which is reasonably on topic.
#!Perl
use strict;
open INPUT_FILE, "<input_file_name";
while (<INPUT_FILE>) {
my $username=$_;
`del \\\\server0\\data\\users\\department\\$username\\*.*`;
}
close INPUT_FILE;
Then just populate the input file with usernames one per line.
