From the safest to the less safe option: 1. Lock the account: ```sh chage -E0 'admin' ``` 1. Remove it from the `openmediavault-admin` group: ```sh gpasswd -d 'admin' 'openmediavault-admin' deluser 'admin' 'openmediavault-admin' ``` 1. Delete it completely: ```sh userdel -r 'admin' deluser 'admin' ``` ## Further readings - [Website] - [Debian] - [Proxmox] - [OMV-Extras] - [Disks maintenance] ## Sources All the references in the [further readings] section, plus the following: - [How to lock or disable an user account] [omv-extras]: https://wiki.omv-extras.org/ [website]: https://www.openmediavault.org/ [further readings]: #further-readings [make other users administrators]: #make-other-users-administrators [debian]: debian.md [disks maintenance]: disks%20maintenance.md [proxmox]: proxmox.md [how to lock or disable an user account]: https://www.thegeekdiary.com/unix-linux-how-to-lock-or-disable-an-user-account/
