Dear, Best regards.
I am presenting a similar problem in my version of clearOS. I entered correctly through console and webconfig or interface, I proceeded to change the password of the root user, I gave it reboot and when turning on it does not allow me to access via Webconfig, ssh, or putty.

In my new password I included the characters # $ these accept them or do not recognize them?

Attentive to your comments.

Thanks in advance!!

    I'm not sure where that older thread is but some special characters like $ and % have special meaning to web browsers and applications services. You'll find that these characters are fine for command line usages. If you locked yourself out, you can use this to help get back in.
