Root password change?

I guess this has been covered before, but is there any way within the Virtualmin root account where i can reset my master root password?

Its not as i'm logged out, its due to protecting the server files as i have a new developer.

Thanks in advance.

Howdy,

You can change that from the command line using the "passwd" command.

Or within the GUI, you could go into Webmin -> System -> Change Passwords, and you could have it change the root user's password from there.
