Read man 5 passwd to see the fields in /etc/passwd, and use sudo vipw --passwd to edit /etc/passwd, OR, read man chfn and use chfn.
Remember that the changes in /etc/passwd only take effect when you go through the login process.
Whenever one makes changes to the authentication mechanism, one should ensure that one is logged in another terminal to avoid locking oneself out of the system through error.
