Just an idea ;-)
Isnīt it posible to create a standard .profile that is stored in a central folder reachable for all users that is included in the .profile for all users?
So at anytime you make changes for all users you only have to change that file.
Iīve seen that on an AIX Box but Iīve no more access to that box so I couldnīt figure out how they exactly implemented this feature.
Probably they just start the standart .profile and included the userīs .profile to make sure the users the users arenīt able to bypass the standart .profile.
Has anybody an idea how to implement this correctly?

NAME
remove profile - Removes all profile elements and the profile from the specified name service entry
SYNOPSIS
rpccp remove profile profile-entry-name [-s syntax]
OPTIONS
Indicates the name syntax of the entry name (optional). The only value for this option is the dce name syntax, which is the default name

name.
DESCRIPTION
The remove profile command removes a profile (and all of its elements) from the name service database. The entry name of the profile is
required.
Privilege Required
You need write permission to the CDS object entry (the target profile entry).
NOTE
This command is replaced at Revision 1.1 by the dcecp command and may not be provided in future releases of DCE.
EXAMPLES
The following commands run RPCCP and remove the profile named /.:/LandS/anthro/molly_o_profile: $ rpccp rpccp> remove profile
/.:/LandS/anthro/molly_o_profile
