Have you 
    (a) created the site-list on $NEW_INSTALL?
    (b) fixed-up the new hostname for the lists?
    (c) fixed-up the new URIs for the lists?
 
 -- those are the things I'd look at first.

for (b), you might find bin/config_list setting host_name useful; for (c)
you may find bin/withlist and fix_url useful.

When you visit a list's admin pages, yes. As for the admin password, 
data/adm.pw --
re-settable via bin/mmsitepass
