Changing a PW is very easy with other OS but Linux terminal MAKES it unnecessarily difficult.
I used the terminal to change my password. It was VERY unfriendly because terminal does not seem to respond while I type the new PW. That is,...
I don't understand. Which Distros give root privileges to non-root users, and which do not? And how would someone know which do & which don't? And...
