changing root password
I want to know if what i am going to do is right.
I need to change my root password and i was thinking about using the passwd command in order to change the password.
Is this the right thing to do or do i need something extra to do that?
Thanks a lot everyone

Re: changing root password
The passwd command should work fine for you and no extra bits are necessary. You do have to be logged in as root to change it though.
HTH,
Peter
