[jadmin] How do I change a user's password?

[Justin Georgeson]

If you're using plain xdb_file you can change the password in 
spool/<servername>/<username>.xml. It won't take effect until the xdb 
cache expires. To change it by sending xml, you must first log in as 
that user, then send this xml

<iq type='set' to='yourjabberhostname'>
   <query xmlns='jabber:iq:register'>
     <username>username</username>
     <password>newpassword</password>
   </query>
</iq>
