ConcreteClam Posted November 9, 2003 Report Share Posted November 9, 2003 The subject says it all... How do I change my root password? I didn't set one at install, and now I'm worried about security. Sorry if there's lots of posts on this, I couldn't find one here. *sheepish grin.* Thanks in advance! -CC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
