Change Root Password Ubuntu via sudoer

how do i change the root password with another sudo user ubuntu?

To change the root password using another sudo user in Ubuntu, you can use the passwd command with sudo. Here are the steps:

1. Open the terminal.
2. After entering and confirming the new password, the system will confirm that the password has been updated successfully.

Run the following command as a sudo user:

sudo passwd root

You will be prompted to enter and confirm the new root password. When setting the password, make sure you're using a unique and robust password. Having a strong password is the most important aspect of the security of your account. Often a strong password has at least 16 characters, at least one uppercase letter, one lowercase letter, one number, and one special character.

This method allows you to set or change the password of the root user in Ubuntu. If you need to enable the root account, setting a password for the root user is the way to go.
