Password Maintenance

I forgot or want to change my user account password.

Open a shell prompt and type the following:

passwd username

Replace username with your normal user name.

The passwd will then ask for the new password, which you will need to enter twice. You can now use the new password to log in to your user account.

Quotes: The most common error made in matters of appearance is the belief that one should disdain the superficial and let the true beauty of one's soul shine through. If there are places on your body where this is a possibility, you are not attractive - you are leaking.
