How reset root@pam from the command line

[dthacker9]

How can I reset the root@pam password from the pbs command line. The help for user update sasy -

#proxmox-backup-manager user update help
--password <string>
             This parameter is ignored, please use 'PUT /access/password' to
             change a user's password

I have tried

#root@pmox-backup:~# proxmox-backup-manager user update root@pam PUT /access/password changeme
Error: got additional arguments: ["PUT", "/access/password", "changeme"]
Usage: proxmox-backup-manager user update <userid> [OPTIONS]

How can I resolve this.
Thanks in advance
Dave

Hi,
the root user is managed by the pam realm, not the pbs realm. You can simply set the new password using passwd on the cli.
