Hello @manubroadcast.,

If you have CLI access to your Ubuntu system, try:

/usr/libexec/webmin/changepass.pl /etc/webmin root password

Where password is the Webmin password you wish to use henceforth.

i try it but it’s not working

it says “-bash: /usr/libexec/webmin/changepass.pl: No such file or directory”

@calport please help

Please try

/usr/share/webmin/changepass.pl /etc/webmin root password

I think I was mistaken earlier, sorry.

Ubuntu does not have a password set for the root user by default. Login in as the sudo user you installed Ubuntu with or set a password for root.
