[Solved] Resetting password LL 2.4
#4
Hello, marnav1!

Welcome to Linux Lite, and to the forums.

The password GUI imposes a 5-character minimum on the password size. I know that it can be a bad idea, but it is sometimes necessary to circumvent that restriction.

To do so, open a terminal window [CTRL-ALT-T] and enter the following:

Code:
sudo passwd username

This will allow you to set a password of less than five characters...
