/users/username deleted - How do u delete?

Nope...

...it's been pissing me off since 10.0 and I don't know of any way of getting rid of it, short of reinstalling.

 

i think this would work:

make sure the root user is enabled in the NetInfo Manager (the app in the utilities folder) -- do this by going to Domain>Security>Authenticate & then authenticate as an administrator.... then Donmain>Security>Enable root user (you'll have to enter a password for root)

then in the terminal: type "su" and then the root password you assigned

then "cd /users"

and finally "rm -rf username" replace username with the username (of course )

i hope that works!

 

if that didn't make sense you can e-mail me... me@kishba.com

good luck!

 

if you dont like the terminal

You can also log in as root at the login screen. Like kishba said you must have root enabled. The in the login preffs.. make it so that there is an "Other" option. Then you can log in as root and use the GUI if you want to.. but becareful loging in as root and using the shell to su to root.. you can do some real damage if your not carfull

 

You can also boot up into OS9 and delete it there where it doesn't recognise root ownership. Just make sure you don't delete much else. If you delete all the users there, you'll find that when you get back into OSX, preference tabs in the system preferences don't exist and you'll have to reinstall.
