To uninstall any of these, use the following steps:

    2. Create and run a script to fully remove the Client:
      1. Navigate to your home directory, type: cd ~
      2. Create the script, type: sudo vi remove-tehama.sh
      3. In insert mode, paste the script below, then write/quit:

#!/bin/bash

# Check if the script is run as root
if [[ $EUID -ne 0 ]]; then
  echo "This script must be run as root"
  exit 1
fi

sudo apt -y remove tehama-pcoip-client
sudo apt -y remove pcoip-client
sudo apt -y autoremove

cd ~

sudo rm -rf TehamaLogs
