Root Password
#3
RE: Root Password
Sentora doesn't setup the actual root password, that's only for the Sentora Control Panel itself, the "zadmin" password.

If you want to change your root password, login to SSH using whatever username you setup with the OS and then type su -l

It'll ask for your password and give you elevated permissions.

Once you've logged in, you can type: sudo passwd root

That'll change the root password. No one should have access to root on your system. In fact, most disable it from the get go.
