removing AD profilePath

[Bob Weiner]

I thought this was a simple question. It is too simple to be posted? Is it
the wrong newsgroup (maybe server.scripting or something)? someone? anyone?

How do I remove the profilePath from a user with C#? The page,
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...properties.asp
seems like a good reference but somehow forgot this.

I have tried several variations of the following:

de.Properties["profilePath"].Remove(de.Properties["profilePath"].Value);
de.CommitChanges();

or
de.Properties["profilePath"].RemoveAt(0);
de.CommitChanges();

they all cause a constraint violation. Is the problem with my code or am I
truly violating some AD constraint? I know everyone isn't required to have
a profile.

Thanks,
bob

You can't remove this property from the AD, you can only set it's value,
here the value of the "profilePath". If you don't have a profile set it's
path to an empty string.
Note that it's better to post such questions to the
Microsoft.public.windows.server.active_directory NG group or the adsi NG.

Thanks!

I'll be more careful with my newsgroup selection.

No problem to post to this NG as well, but you might get better answers when
posting to an AD or adsi NG.
