Hi Daren,

1) There are several possibilities. First, make sure you are not logged in
as 'vyatta' (can't delete a logged-in user). Secondly, even if you are not
logged in as vyatta, if you have logged in as vyatta and then logged out,
sometimes the system still shows vyatta as logged in (and thus deleting it
will fail), so you might want to reboot the box, log in as root, and then
delete vyatta. Finally, earlier versions have a problem where deleting a
user fails intermittently, which has been corrected now.

2) Yes, the plaintext gets encrypted on commit, and the plaintext should be
cleared. However, in some cases, the plaintext is still displayed
afterwards. See the following bug:

https://bugzilla.vyatta.com/show_bug.cgi?id=745

A workaround now is to manually delete the plaintext if this happens.

3) At the moment, all users created have the same access.

Hope this helps.
