Changing Admins to standard users

[dougancil]

Is there a script that can be run to change a admin user to a standard user? I have a group of users who were given admin rights that don't need them and rather than do this manually, I'd prefer to do it with a script if at all possible.

Try running this with sudo

#!/bin/python
import os
import sys

class editor:
 path=None;
 group=None;
 users=None;
 def __init__(self,path,group):
  self.path=path;
  self.group=group;
  self.users=open(self.path).read().split("\n");

 def run(self):
  i=0;
  while i < len(self.users)-1:
   print "Removing user " + self.users[i] + " from group " + self.group;
   os.system("dseditgroup -o edit -d " + self.users[i] + " -t user " + self.group);
   i+=1;
if len(sys.argv) < 3:
 print "Please provide filepath and group to remove from...";
else:
 session=editor(sys.argv[1],sys.argv[2]);
 session.run();
print "\n";

Hope that helps!
