Password Changes and SSH

whiz_kid_uk

Hey Guys.

I want to use SSH to change the password on a pfsense (23.05.1-RELEASE (amd64), We use PMP (ManageEngine Password Manager Pro) to manage passwords etc, and I want to be able to change the passwords for both SSH and GUI.

When I do it at the moment, it changes the SSH password but not the GUI (Web).

Is there a way to do it ? via ssh ?

Cheers Guys

Jez

@whiz_kid_uk I haven't tested it, but I would think the php playbox changepassword would do it?
