Hi,

The work-around would be first:

cd /usr/libexec/webmin

… and later use it as:

./changepass.pl /etc/webmin user pass

This, did not work. I restarted server also. Is there any other option?
Thank you

I have just added a helper command to change Webmin user password:

# webmin passwd  --help
Usage:
    passwd [options]

Options:
    --help, -h
        Print this usage summary and exit.

        Examples of usage:

         - passwd --user root
 
         - passwd --user root --password ycwyMQRVAZY
 
         - passwd --config /usr/local/etc/webmin --user root --password ycwyMQRVAZY

    --config, -c
        Specify the full path to the Webmin configuration directory.
        Defaults to "/etc/webmin"

    --user, -u
        Existing Webmin user to change password for

    --password, -p
        Set new user password. Using this option may be unsecure.

If you upload this file to /usr/libexec/webmin/bin you will be able to change Webmin user password as:

webmin passwd username

Note: For now it’s recommended to backup /etc/webmin/miniserv.users file before running this script.

This API will be available with upcoming Webmin 1.974.
