Changing the admin password

As mentioned earlier, by default, Odoo sets the password for its operations to admin. To secure your server, it is necessary to change this password in your configuration file:

Admin_password=[your password] 

Also, be careful not to start up your Odoo server from the command line without specifying an alternative password or the path to the configuration file. If you do, you leave the instance open with the default password.
