I typed the passwd command, then input the new password.

~$ sudo passwd
Enter new UNIX password: 
Retype new UNIX password: 
passwd: password updated successfully

I closed this terminal and open a new one. When I was prompted to input password again, the new password was not accepted, instead the old one was accepted.

$ sudo apt
[sudo] password for user: 
Sorry, try again.
[sudo] password for user: 
apt 1.2.24 (amd64)
Usage: apt [options] command
...

What did I do wrong? How can I view my current password?
