Quote:When in the CLI and presented with a PW prompt - you will NOT see an output representation of keys entered.. No **** or P@ssw0r....

[member=5414]firenice03[/member] is right,  one could change that default behaviour though, for that, open a terminal and type
Code:
sudo nano /etc/sudoers
type in your password when asked, hit enter and in the sudoers file locate this line Defaults        env_reset and insert this Defaults        pwfeedback right under that one so it looks like this:

Pay special attention to the space bettween Default and pwfeedback cause you must use it, once you've done that, hit Ctrl + o and hit enter to save your changes, then hit Ctrl + x to close nano. Now everytime you type in your password in the terminal you'll see asteriks ********** instead of a blank. Smile
Without each others help there ain't no hope for us Smile
