You should never have admin and root be the same password. If it's that way on your other RaQ, then you should change it. If it's set *correctly* on your current raq and you don't know root password.. that could be a problem but.. Resetting it in the admin panel (the admin password) will reset the root password also..

Then you would want to SSH (NOT TELNET) in as admin, and change the root password to something else.. write both down so you have them..
