[05] HOW DO I CHANGE MY LOGIN PASSWORD?

     You can change your login password at the UNIX shell by logging in
     to 'ol.freeshell.org' via TELNET.  Note that you can first ssh to
     'tty.freeshell.org' to encrypt your session before telnetting to 'ol'

     The system will ask you to enter your current password and then your
     new password.

     Some suggestions for choosing a password are:

        1) Try to use non-English words
        2) use ESCAPE, CTRL or META characters along with a non-English word
        3) use numbers or special characters

     Making a good password will ensure your privacy on this system.
