The preferred way of changing the password is to use the RoleManager.
Example (change bob's password to cheese):
-----
RoleManager roleManager =
(RoleManager)context.lookup("java:comp/RoleManager");
User user = (User)roleManager.getPrincipal("bob");
user.setPassword("cheese");
roleManager.store();
-----
See http://www.orionserver.com/docs/api/ for docs on RoleManager. Briefly,
it's job is to provide an interface to the current UserManager for the
developer to work with.
