You need to call read, not assign it:

input = read("*")

You also need to use commas (,) to seperate arguments to functions:

rs.setOutput("left", true)

I'd recommend you read this: http://www.lua.org/pil/index.html
It's a great resource for getting started with Lua.

And it should be

input == pass

The whole code should look like

pass = "password"
write "password: "
input = read("*")
if input == pass then  -- if you didnt assign open to anything so you can't use it
print "welcome!"
redstone.setOutput("left", true)--dont forget the comma
sleep(3.5)
redstone.setOutput("left", false)
else
print "Awww :(/>"
sleep(1)
os.reboot()
end
