Resetting user password.....Debian
Hi There,
I have forgotten my user password....HOWEVER I remembered the root password and am able, (after much fumbling about)to get into the machine. Is there a way of resetting my password? It obviously will not let me do so on the password-reset-screen as it requires the old password.... Thanks! Tony |
Log in as root, and type:
Code:
passwd <user> Root can change passwords for anybody, being the superuser. I hope this helps. |
