Password Issues: - Mad-Architect - 09-24-2017
Hello all!
I have just recently installed Ubuntu 16.04 on a virtual-box; it is to be used as the base for a server based project that I am working on. I installed it, but I have a reached an issue where I need to input a password: (see attachment)
Any help would be appreciated.

It is pretty good, I like it because its visually appealing. But it wasn't the first distro I started with, that was Linux Mint and I hated that.. I don't know why though, I think it wasn't visually appealing.. its a problem RE: Password Issues: - The BOFH - 04-11-2018

As far as i can see while installing you opted for encrypt your home directory and with that option you were prompted for a password. That's the password you need to use for using your home directory.
