I have an account "User1" that has Sudo access. PMP issues the command: 

sudo passwd root 

then receives the response: 

[User1]password for User1: 

PMP then enters the newly generated password for the root account rather than the User1 account password. 

This is an issue as we need to reset a large amount of centos server passwords all of which do the same when using sudo. 

we dont have root passwords for all the servers so cannot use the other method supplied with PMP.
