How Do I: Find List of Users UNC Directory and Delete (Kinda Solved, Needs CleanUp)


Recommended Posts

I'm trying to work on a script for work and this is what I need it to do

Find users in a "ready to delete" ou, dump them in a text file

Have autoit read the text file per user and search three locations

\\Staff1\StaffStrorage\users.name

\\Staff2\StaffStorage\users.name

\\Staff3\StaffStorage\users.name

Find where the users documents are, take ownership using "takeown.exe" and then delete their folders/files

I already have finding users and dumping them in a text file figured out

I already have taking ownership of their folder and deleting them figured out

I just need help on creating and understanding how to search the three servers for the user.name for each user in the text file

Your help is much appreciated!

I have the following figured out

If FileExists ( $Path & "" & $User ) Then
RunWait ( "cmd /c takeown " $Path & "" & $User & " /R /Y" )
DirRemove ( $Path & "" & $User, 1 )
Else
MsgBox ( 0, "Not Found", "User: " & "'" & $User & "'" & " Not Found" )
EndIf

Now if someone can help me understand how to

1) Make the $User value change according to the list of users in the text file

2) How to make $Path alternate through predefind paths like staff1staffstorage staff2staffstorage staff3staffstorage

Well I kinda figured out something, it's clunky but works, if anyone would like to clean it up for me, I'm all for it!

#include <File.au3>
#include <Array.au3>

RunWait ('cmd /c dsquery user OU="Ready To Delete",OU="Users",DC="domain",DC="org" -o rdn -inactive 17 -limit 0 -disabled > userstodelete.' & @MON & '.' & @MDAY & '.' & @YEAR, "", @SW_SHOW)
_ReplaceStringInFile ( 'userstodelete.' & @MON & '.' & @MDAY & '.' & @YEAR, '"','')

Local $aInput, $bInput, $cInput
$afile = 'userstodelete.' & @MON & '.' & @MDAY & '.' & @YEAR
$bFile = 'deletedir.' & @MON & '.' & @MDAY & '.' & @YEAR
_FileReadToArray($aFile, $aInput)
For $i = 1 to UBound($aInput) -1
MsgBox (0,'',$aInput[$i])
RunWait ( 'cmd /c dir staff1d$*' & $aInput[$i] & ' /s /b >> deletedir.' & @MON & '.' & @MDAY & '.' & @YEAR, '', @SW_HIDE )
RunWait ( 'cmd /c dir staff2d$*' & $aInput[$i] & ' /s /b >> deletedir.' & @MON & '.' & @MDAY & '.' & @YEAR, '', @SW_HIDE )
RunWait ( 'cmd /c dir staff3d$*' & $aInput[$i] & ' /s /b >> deletedir.' & @MON & '.' & @MDAY & '.' & @YEAR, '', @SW_HIDE )
Next

_FileReadToArray($bFile, $bInput)
For $b = 1 to UBound($bInput) -1
RunWait ( 'cmd /c takeown /f ' & $bInput[$b] & ' /r /d y', '', @SW_HIDE )
DirRemove ( $bInput[$b], 1 )
Next

_FileReadToArray($aFile, $cInput)
For $c = 1 to UBound($cInput) -1
MsgBox ( 0, '', $cInput[$c])
RunWait ( 'cmd /c dsrm CN="' & $cInput[$c] & '",OU="Ready To Delete",OU="Users",DC="domain",DC="org" -noprompt', '', @SW_HIDE )
Next
