i cant type anything after i type “passwd”
A good example of what kinds of things users are struggling with.
My answer:
Password is not shown on the screen when you type it. You have to type blindly. No asterisk sign (
*
) will be shown either. Just type. It will work.
We will document this.
Is there any GUI tool in XFCE (or otherwise installable) for this purpose?
Is there any alternative to the CLI passwd
tool? Can passwd
be made to show asterisk sign ( *
)?
