You can run cat /etc/passwd to see a list of all users on the system. Your users will generally have a user ID higher than 1000.

Thank you. With your command I see the two users.

Actually, I forget one user’s password and I will find ways to get it back after reading more docs.

Have a good day.

  From your root user or a user that has sudo privileges you can up date the password with this command…
  
  as root - passwd username
  sudo user - sudo passwd username
  
  … and following the the prompts.
