Thanks for looking into this Dustin. It seems the `resources` type is a big hack, and bizarre that it contains knowledge about other types. I thought you might be able to use WMI to determine which accounts are builtin and which are not, but I didn't see a way. Another option is to resolve names into SIDs, and purge any non-builtin account whose SID is `S-1-5-21-<domain>-<rid>`, where `rid` is not one of the well-known SIDs. For example, `Administrator`has rid `500`, but `albert`, a user I created has rid `1000`. <pre> C:\>wmic path win32_useraccount get name, sid Administrator S-1-5-21-2397885826-1833024046-1055597067-500 albert S-1-5-21-2397885826-1833024046-1055597067-1000 </pre> I don't know if windows always starts at 1000 for newly created accounts? ---------------------------------------- Bug #22048: Managing user resources on Windows fails https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/22048#change-96351 * Author: Dustin Mitchell * Status: Accepted * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * Category: * Target version: * Affected Puppet version: * Keywords: windows * Branch: ---------------------------------------- -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
