bin/change_pw has been in the distribution since 2.1a2 (over 4 years).
I don't know why you wouldn't have it unless yours is a 2.0.x
installation, in which case I don't think I can help much anyway.

You can download change_pw from
<http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/mailman/mailman/bin/change_pw?view=log>,
but if you do this, you need to change @PYTHON@ on the first line to
the actual path to python on your system.

Do other changes you make in the admin interface 'stick'. If so, I have
no idea why a password change wouldn't, but if not see FAQs 4.45
and/or 4.65.
