Sorry I didn't notice that owasp user can do 'sudo'
I'm not a newby in Un*x (MacOS adicted, that uses sudo too) but clueless...

To tell you the truth, I don't know what the root password is either. ;)

And, luckily, you don't need to know it either. Since we've moved WTE to Ubuntu, there's a fully featured sudo installation. If you need to do something as root, just add sudo in front of your command like:

$ sudo nmap -v -sS -F example.com

and use the owasp users's password of owasp.

If you like living dangerously and you've got a creative and devious mind, you might realize you can do things like this too:

$ sudo su -

But all the warnings of running as root apply.

Best of luck!
