[QUOTE="RadDave, post: 1650124, member: 234411"] Just curious (and NOT a terminal expert - more an 'avoider' ;)) - but the command line after the 'rm -rf' should specify the home directory (unless the user is already there), and also just '.Trash', like [I]~/.Trash[/I] - correct me if I'm wrong - Dave :) [/QUOTE]
