On Ubuntu, there is no default "netadmin" password, as user accounts and their passwords are created during the installation process. If you need to manage network settings, you typically do so with a user account that has administrative privileges, which can be accessed using the sudo
command. If you have forgotten a password, you may need to reset it via recovery mode or by using a live USB. Always ensure you have the right permissions and follow security best practices when managing user accounts.
hi, ubuntu is old password i do no but new password try that him, pls guy help me.
The root password is stored in hashed form in the /etc/shadow file.
1. Call your computer seller and ask him if Compaq has provided a username and password. 2. Get hold of a Ubuntu CD and install.
There is a GUI tool that you can use, or try the 'passwd' command in a terminal window.
There is no password. The CD will start up by default to an unprivileged desktop. You can escalate privileges using sudo, without the need to enter a password (unlike after you install).
If you still have access to your own account, run passwd or find the Users and Accounts preferences dialog to change your password. If you don't have access to your account, you need to obtain root access to change the password, which involves editing the GRUB boot menu options. If all else fails, reinstall Ubuntu.... but be sure to make your home directory a separate partition so you will never lose personal files.
It is. You just can't see it. Typed characters are not echoed on the screen as a security precaution.
Xubuntu and Ubuntu are two different versions of Ubuntu. (Ubuntu has GNOME.)
Open a console/terminal, type ¨sudo apt-get install VLC¨, enter your password when he screen prompts you, then it ubuntu will get VLC and install it for you.
Ubuntu is best, but then I'm biased, as my computers all run Ubuntu!
In Ubuntu 9.10 you simply Click Applications > Ubuntu Software Center then in the search field click vlc and click install. or the old school way that will work with all the version of Ubuntu click System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager type in your password type in the quick search field VLC and then right click on VLC and then click on mark for installation and follow the prompts then click on apply when your done. Or you could just open up a terminal and type: sudo apt-get install vlc
You cannot retrieve your old password. However, if you are in fact the controller of the computer, you can boot Ubuntu in "recovery mode" via the GRUB boot menu. When prompted, select the option to use a root shell. You will be given a command prompt. Enter this command:passwd [username]where [username] is the name that you log in with. Enter a new password. Then press Ctrl - D or type in reboot.
