Thank you.  That did the trick.

Pursuant to that advice, I copied templates/en/admlogin.html to 
templates/site/en/admlogin.html and made the following changes.  Note, I 
did not previously have the site specific files, do not make the copy if 
you already have custom files or you will loose your customizations. 
Don't forget to make sure that Mailman has permissions to the custom 
files and the directories they are in.

  - Added a the following onLoad to the page's BODY tag.

       onLoad="document.LoginForm.adminpw.focus()"

  - Added the following name to the page's FORM tag.

       NAME="LoginForm"

Thus when the page load, it executes the onLoad JavaScript statement and 
sets the focus on the password input box.  :)

P.S.  Tip of the hat for the way that Mailman has split up the locations 
that you can make customizations.
