Yes, you can change it. Google for "linux reset root password" and you'll find links such as http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-r...root-password/. The essential answer is that you boot into single-user mode, and use the 'passwd' command to reset it.

Yes!

The exact method depends on the distribution you are using. Here are easy instructions for Ubuntu for example:
