Hi Rahul

Are you talking about a local admin account created for the Zend.To
install? If so have a look for the deleteuser script and remove the local
account using that not sure on the version but the syntax example on my
install is:

/opt/zendto/bin$ ./deleteuser

  usage:

   ./deleteuser '<username>'

Hope that helps.
