Hello,

Can I safely change the root password of the Nagios XI server?

Grtz

Yes. It is generally a good idea to change the root password. We have customers change the default when spinning up a VM.

The default password was already changed 2 years ago. Our production XI server has been running for 2 years now. We just have some new password policy recently....

Understand. Access to root needs to be protected. Can we close this thread?
