Open the LXD interface by clicking on the name of the LXD container. 2. On the LXD page, click on "Execute" to enter the execution console. 3. Enter the command "passwd" and press enter. Note that this is not the complete password, and entering it incorrectly will result in an error. 4. After entering the correct command, you will be prompted to enter a new password. Since the account name is root, simply enter the new password and press enter (the password will not be displayed as you type).
