Changing a user's password in Linux can be accomplished using the passwd command. Here's how to do it:
How to Change Your Own Password:
1. Log in to your SSH account
Open a terminal and log in with root or sudo access.
2. Change the User's Password
You can change your user's password using the `passwd' command:
sudo passwd
You'll be prompted to enter a new password for the user and confirm it.
How to Change Another User's Password:
1. Log in to your SSH account
Open a terminal and log in with root or sudo access.
2. Change the User's Password
You can change the user's password using the'username` option:
sudo passwd username
Replace username with the actual username.
You'll be prompted to enter a new password for the user and confirm it.
Important Considerations:
Ensure you have the necessary permissions to change another user's password.
Always choose strong, unique passwords to maintain system security.
