      I created a new admin account in the web GUI, tested it and then disabled the admin account via the GUI.  I then turned on SSH and accidentally used the admin account id and password i just disabled. I thought that strange so i changed the admin password to something else via the command shell.

      I am not sure if this is expected behavior or not or if this scenario is specific to the admin user account only.
