This menu allows you to set your user name, your shell, and your password. You can set your username to almost anything you'd like, though be aware that your site may set standards on just what that username is. You can set your shell to any of the standard system shells (this is the shells that are kept in the file /etc/shells, in case you're interested), and your password is almost anything you'd like, though your site may also set standards on just how complex your password must be.

When you change your password, a dialog box will pop up asking you to reenter the password a second time. If you don't enter the same password, your password will not be changed.
