I'm using active directory to manage logins to a large number of servers. We have various admins that will be connecting via RDP to these servers. Is there a way I can force windows to remove their local profiles after they log out?
I found the 'Delete user profiles older then a specified number of days on system restart' and 'Delete cached copies of roaming profiles', however the former doesn't help a whole lot (these servers generally only get restarted for windows updates), and the latter doesn't seem to apply to local profiles.
I might be able to accomplish this with a script that runs on logout, however I'd rather not do that unless absolutely necessary.

What you can do is making a simple schedule task, using a tool like delprof2, that runs at the interval you want. You would would likely have to add a check to make sure you dont try to delete the profile of a user that is logged in.
This being said you should take into account the much longer login time after a profile is deleted ( In terms of how often its done).
