Thaty might be the case because Domain Users is designated as their Primary Group. Thus, if an account has a different group as primary group, then Domain Users will be removed but not the other group. _________________________ There are two types of vessels, submarines and targets.

You can set their DEFAULT group to another group and then remove the group that used to be their default. Beyond that MS assumes you must DELETE the user if they have NO group membership.

Lonkero Lonkero KiX Master Guru Registered: 2001-06-05 Posts: 22346 Loc: OK	not sure is it the thing with ms but to me it sounds totally logical. if you really want to remove the groups, make a group named "trashed UserAccounts" and set it as the default and do the delete groups loop. thus removal of "domain rights" accounts can be completed. _________________________ ! download KiXnet
