Do all this as root of course.

1.  vipw and delete the line for the user in question.
2.  vi /etc/group and remove the user from all groups.
2.  rm -rf /home/user.

There is a removeuser perl script that will archive up their home
directories.  I have this and can make it available by request.  I believe
it will also end up in 2.2.
