I believe that starting with the installed of Fedora Workstation F30 the root account is created but disabled. There is no root password. So, you have to login to the system with the account you've designated as an administrator and then give it a password. I think, based on what you've said, that account is pdupre. So..... ssh pdupre@whateverhost then sudo passwd root -- The key to getting good answers is to ask good questions. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
