For users login for the first time, after typing the initial password, one would be immediately prompted to change that password to a new hard-to-guess password.
All passwords are required to be at least 10 characters long and contain at least one character each from lower case letters, upper case letters, digits and punctuation.
To change your password, use the command ‘passwd’. You will be asked to input your current password, and then your new password twice.
[jzhan61@clogin01 ~]$ passwd
