Security issue

[Pop Horea]

Hi,
Today I wanted to change my root password.
The story is as follows:
Terminal with 3 tabs open: one in the root, and two in which I changed the password 2 times other for root tabs open at all times.
I opened Nautilus in root.
If you open a new terminal I do not accept any password. Perhaps I was not too careful as I typed.

I have opened and functional root terminal and nautilus but noted that were opened before password change.
I did order the tab with root: cd / etc passwd and then I changed but not working.

What can I do with what I have to set a password function?
It can?
