There are a few additional things to do. You can do the following.

1. Create a new user with createSeedboxUser
2. Add this user to your sudoers
3. Open the /etc/sudoers file and modify the following to have your NEW username for controlling panel functions etc:

# User privilege specification
<NEWUSERNAME> ALL=(ALL:ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
root	ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL
www-data     ALL = (ALL) NOPASSWD: CLEANMEM, SYSCMNDS, PLUGINCMNDS, PACKAGECMNDS, GENERALCMNDS

4. Open /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/default-ssl.conf and modify the file to contain the new master user and the new user you generated port (You can find the new users port in their /home/<NEWUSER>/.rtorrent.rc file.

5. Modify the /srv/rutorrent/home/db/master.txt file to contain only the name of the new user you created to be admin. Be sure there is no whitespace or additional lines in this file.
6. Finally, send a restart to apache with service apache2 restart
