Hey! Thanks for the advice. I've been trying to figure out how to
construct such a script, but I'm falling short. Could you by any chance
give me an example or tell me where I can find the one that was already
done? I would really appreciate it. I have a bunch of users on this thing
and the .Apple* files are scaring me. :-)
Thanks very much!
Philip
