让我们跳进去。

1.更改您的用户密码 (1. Changing your user password)

As a regular user in a Linux system, you can only change your password. The root user is the only user that can change the passwords of other users.

作为Linux系统的普通用户，您只能更改密码。 root用户是唯一可以更改其他用户密码的用户。

The command used for changing users’ password is the passwd command. It is usually followed by the username of the user whose password you want to change i.e.

用于更改用户密码的命令是passwd命令。 通常，其后是要更改其密码的用户的用户名，即

# passwd your_username

For example, if you want to change the password of a user jamie, execute

例如，如果要更改用户jamie的密码，请执行

# passwd jamie

You will be prompted to type your current password and later provide the NEW password and confirm it.

系统将提示您输入当前密码，然后提供新密码并进行确认。

Passwords are stored in an ecrrypted format in the /etc/gshadow file.

密码以加密格式存储在/etc/gshadow文件中。

2.更改其他用户的Linux密码 (2. Changing Linux password for another user)

As discussed before, only the root user can change other users’ password. So, you need to log in as the root user to do this.

如前所述，只有root用户可以更改其他用户的密码。 因此，您需要以root用户身份登录才能执行此操作。

Once logged in run the command as earlier shown to change a users password

登录后，运行前面显示的命令以更改用户密码

# passwd username

Once again, you will be prompted for the new password and asked to confirm it.

再次，将提示您输入新密码并要求您确认。

3.强制用户在下次登录时更改密码 (3. Forcing a user to change password at the Next Login)

Usually, passwords are not set to expire. But, you can force a user to change their password the next time they log in to the Linux system.

通常，密码未设置为过期。 但是，您可以强制用户在下次登录Linux系统时更改其密码。

To do this , use the passwd command with --expire option followed by the username of the user:

为此，请使用带有--expire选项的passwd命令以及用户名：

$ passwd --expire jamie

The next time user logs in with their old password, they will be forced to change the password.

下次用户使用旧密码登录时，将被迫更改密码。
