Linux Change Password

To change the password of a user account on a Linux system, you can use the passwd command.

Here's an example of how to use passwd to change the password of the current user:

$ passwd
Enter your current password: 
Enter your new password: 
Re-enter your new password:

If you want to change the password of another user, you can use sudo to run the passwd command as the root user. For example, to change the password of the user jane, you can run the following command:

$ sudo passwd jane
Enter your current password: 
Enter new password for user jane: 
Re-enter new password for user jane:

Note: You will need to have the necessary privileges to run the sudo command.

It's also a good idea to choose a strong password to protect your account. A strong password is one that is difficult for others to guess or crack using automated tools. It should be at least 8 characters long and include a mix of upper and lower case letters, numbers, and special characters.
