    Changing your password in Rocky Linux 8

    The username of users on your Rocky Linux 8 VPS can be easily changed using command-line via SSH, or the VPS console. There are three options, depending on which user you want to change the password for:

    • your own password:
      passwd
    • the root password:
      There are two options: the first option is to first switch to the root user and then change the password:
      su root
      passwd
      
      or adjust the root password directly:
      sudo passwd

    Have you lost your root password? Then consult this tutorial to reset your root password.

    • the password of another user:
      sudo passwd user
      Replace user with the actual username.
