I just had a thought -- perhaps if you go into the "Users & Groups" tab you can open the icon for the "owner" of the computer and set the "Allow user to change password" option. Otherwise, I'd suggest opening up the Preferences folder and deleting everything related to FileSharing (the folder and the "File Sharing CP prefs" file) and restarting.
