I don't have my wiki set up that way, but have you checked the user
preferences/user data page also.  It is normally the place where users
change their passwords. In fact the login page doesn't have an option
to change a password even when users can create accounts. This makes
sense since you really need to be authenticated before you change your
password, in other words you need to be logged in first.
