Ubuntu does not use a root password.
While that is somewhat true, I'll explain a little further. Ubuntu makes extensive use of the sudo command to provide root privileges. However, if you have scripts that need to be run as root and/or you just don't want to have to type sudo before a series of commands, then you can become root by doing "sudo su" then setting the root password.
