+and 
+.BR delgroup(8) .
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The file 
+.I /etc/deluser.conf
+contains defaults for the programs
+.B deluser(8) 
+and 
+.BR delgroup(8) .
+Each option takes the form
+.IR option " = " value .
+Double or single quotes are allowed around the value.  Comment lines
+must have a hash sign (#) at the beginning of the line.
+
+.B deluser(8) 
+and 
+.B delgroup(8) 
+also read 
+.I /etc/adduser.conf,
+see 
+.B adduser.conf(5); 
+settings in 
+.I deluser.conf 
+may overwrite settings made in 
+.I adduser.conf.
+
+The valid configuration options are:
+.TP
+\fBREMOVE_HOME\fP
+Removes the home directory and mail spool of the user to be removed.
+Value may be 0 (don't delete) or 1 (do delete).
+.TP
+\fBREMOVE_ALL_FILES\fP
+Removes all files on the system owned by the user to be removed.
+If this option is activated
+.B REMOVE_HOME
+has no effect. Values may be 0 or 1.
+.TP
+\fBBACKUP\fP
+If
+.B REMOVE_HOME
+or
+.B REMOVE_ALL_FILES
+is activated all files are backuped before they are removed. The backup
+file that is created defaults to username.tar(.gz|.bz2) in the
+directory specified by the

+option. The compression method is chosen to the best that is available.
+Values may be 0 or 1.
+.TP
+\fBBACKUP_TO\fP

+specifies the directory the backup is written to. Default is the
+current directory.
+.TP
+\fBNO_DEL_PATHS\fP
+A list of regular expressions, space separated. All files to be
+deleted in course of deleting home directories or deleting files owned
+by the user to be deleted are checked against each of these regular
+expressions. If a match is detected, the file is not deleted. Defaults
+to a list of system directories, leaving only /home.
+
+In other words: By default only files below /home belonging to that specific user are going to be deleted.
