check the ORACLE_SID, and the OS user you have logged in as, if the OS user you have logged is in the dba group(OS) then it shouldn't prompt you for a password for the Internal user, also checkout if you are trying to administer a remote database or your ORACLE_SID is set to a different one than the one you are connecting to, and trying to connect as "connect internal_at_Remote_database_connectstring" in this case it will even prompt you for a password, then you need to check out the REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE parameter in the initsid.ora file.
Here is the syntax for changing the password for Internal.
$ $ORACLE_HOME/bin/orapwd file=<filename> password=<password> entries=<max_users>
Let me know if you require more help.
