My latest version of removeuser is at ftp://ftp.dsu.edu/pub/FreeBSD/ghelmer/removeuser-2-beta.tar.gz Improvements include: Removes user's crontab and at jobs No longer requires h2ph'ed versions of several files in /usr/include/machine - just install and use Uses "rm -rf" to remove user's home directory instead of removing it by hand (therefore avoids problems with uchg flag) Catches most non-fatal errors and issues warnings Maintains ownership and privileges of /etc/group after modification This code is new and should be treated as such - please test it out and let me know if you find any problems.
