I've inherited a Debian box setup as a firewall. In an effort to learn better config. I'd like to examine the setting. Unfortunately I don't have the root password.
Tried Ctrl+X > passwd to no avail.
Q1. Is it worth re-setting the password (I don't have a recent Debian comp.)?
Q2. Can I re-set it (and how)?
