Tony,

To acheive your goal you must edit the tombstoneLifetime attribute. The
defualt value of this attribute is 60 days. To edit this attribute, use the
AD editing tool of your choice. Supported tools include adsiedit.msc and
ldp.exe.

The tombstone lifetime attribute is located on the enterprise-wide DS
config object. The path for this attribute is:

CN=Directory Service,CN=Windows
NT,CN=Services,CN=Configuration,DC=COMPANY,DC=COM

Valid setting for this attribute is between and including 2 to 45. Any
other antry is considered invalid and will result in the system using the
default value of 60.

Please let me correct my original statement. You can set this value to 90
for 90 days. You just can't set it lower then 2. My appologies...
