In Mailman 2.1.1 (why so old?) if you just specify list_name to
bin/newlist, the list will be created in the
DEFAULT_URL_HOST/DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST domains. if you want these to be
different you have to create list_name at url_host, specifying the web
domain, not the email domain as url_host.

Do you mean the moderator password or the list admin password?

No, but the moderator password can't log in to the admin interface,
only to the admindb interface. Only the list admin or site admin
password can be used to log in to the admin interface.
