We have been needing to find a script that works to delete all the home folders in the Users directory except for four that we need to keep (map, tech, student, and admn). We have a setup of mobile home directories that are cached on each laptop when network users first use them. Here is the script that support helped build. I am getting a syntax error when running it at the first "for".
