hi,

superuser status for minivend is determined by username, not by a sign
on userdb. So you must edit your directories, especially minimate
directories and replace "minivend" with new user name. look for .access
files it should give you an idea of it.

make sure you remove all "minivend" user and replace. I recommend not to
delete this user to prevent someone to get it. Instead keep it for
security even though you wont use it.
