[QUOTE="blufox, post: 863173, member: 26799"] there no special sudo password. *If* you have rights to become root(provided by root offcourse), then you can use your very own account password to perform administrative actions on your box. :) root password is the password for the most prviliged user on a unix box, rest all are lesser mortals with their a/c passwords. In a nutshell root password != sudo password. a/c password == sudo password if allowed in the first place by root. a/c password != sudo password if not allowed in the first place by root. [/QUOTE]
