I logged in GUI as admin, and I tried to change password.
I checked /etc/shadow, then root, admin and root-admin are same  
password on FC1
and CentOS4, CentOS4 is my development environment, but FC1 is  
updated with
released packages.

I think that root, admin and root-admin password are synchronized.
