In GOsa, we have hooks for all sorts of object actions. One hook is the user account postremove hook. This hook gets called when a user gets removed from LDAP. Everything fine around this. By design, this hook also gets called whenever a user template object gets removed. A user template is a user-like LDAP object, that acts as a template for account generation. Those user template object do not have a home dir, neither do they have Kerberos data. Debian Edu comes with two such user templates, at our customers we add several more (for itstaff, wifionlyusers, ...). I had to remove such a template back then and the removal threw up an error. The cause of the error message was that the postremove hook tried to remove the home dir of a user template. User templates do not have home dirs by design. In the gosa-remove script, we simply need to check the LDAP object being processed and skip all actions if that LDAP object has object class gosaAccountTemplate (IRC). Does that help as info??
