I'm not aware of a policy/reg edit that allows for expiration of cached roaming profiles, though I'm going to do more research, and I'd sure like such a function. There are two other ways to deal with this, one is to stop them from caching [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon] "DeleteRoamingCache"=dword:00000001 The other way I have used is to put DelCache.exe (from the appropriate OS resource kit) on each workstation, and set it to run with appropriate toggles once a month on each workstation. This may accomplish what you want. David Spanne >Quoting Anthony Abraham <AABRAHAM@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>: Hi Can anyone tell me if there is an AD policy that allows me to delete locally cached profiles automatically after x days?? . There is a bug where if an AD user is deleted or disabled, a user can theoretically log on locally with cached credentials. We don't want to disable cached credentials - these are obviously useful if the AD servers are unavailable. From my testing, a user can logon with cached credentials indefinately. Passwords will not expire either and they can still map a drive to the server where their home drive is at In an ideal world, it would be great to have a policy that deletes locally cached profiles if it hasn't been updated within 7 days - has anyone accomplished this?
