Changing the default root (ssh) password

Security is a big name for a retrogaming OS. Batocera is not a designed to be a secure OS. Don't expose it to the open Internet: you are warned and you will take all responsibility for what happens.

However, if you want to change the password, you can do so by doing the followings:

• Connect to your Batocera using SSH on another device
• In EmulationStation, go to the System settings, then to Advanced, and then to Security.
• Enable the Enforce Security setting.
• In the terminal connected using SSH, type the following command : batocera-config setRootPassword [password] (replace [password] by the password you want).
• Then, use the batocera-config getRootPassword command to see if your changes were applied.
• Reboot the system, and you should be able to connect to it using the new password.
