How to clear userland?

[Graham North]

Is there a nice tidy way to clear my userland - CLEAN without 
jeopardizing or reloading the OS?

My 4.11 box is still stable - it started life as a webserver (my first 
learning experience with Unix), then added printserver and was still 
pretty light in "junk".  Recently however, I decided to add a mail 
server - what with naivety and inexperience and looking at anti-spam and 
uncle virus etc I think I clogged up my HD with too many  extras.

I would like to take it back to a barebones OS and reinstall userland 
without having to re-install OS - can someone suggest safest and least 
painful options.
Thanks,  Graham/

BTW - I stayed with 4.11 mainly because it is stable, and it does what 
it is supposed to do - well, on fairly light hardware, IBM PIII-600 w. 
256MB.  If it ain't broke......   When the hardware breaks it will 
probably be time to upgrade the software and check out 6.x's new goodies 
- or maybe it will be 7.x or 8.x by that time.  ..;--)
Cheers, G/
