In Linux environment we can see that there is not any hints while entering the password from the terminal when we want to log in to our account. This can be inconvenience sometimes because we have no idea about the no of characters we entered and it's become difficult to correct the input password. Here is a way to show feedback character (*) in such case. Follow the following steps to enable password character:
- Run the terminal, Ctrl + Alt + T
- Enter the following command in the Terminal: sudo visudo
- Look for the following lines: Defaults env_reset
- Change it to as follows: Defaults env_reset,pwfeedback
- Press Ctrl+X to finish editing, Y to save changes
- Enter to exit.
This will work for you.
