I created an accound and forgot the password, how do I get (i'm root too)

The simplest way I know of checking if a user exists is to do a simple grep

grep "username" /etc/passwd

This will search the password file for the username. However the password is generally encrypted.

If your only need is to change the password - you might want to look at this
http://www.bsdi.com/bsdi-man?proto=1.1&apropos=0&msection=ALL&query=passwd

anyhow, in what file and where the encrypted password is stored?

I think that would be /etc/shadow

anyway,if i m not mistaken, root can use <$ sudo passwd (username)> to change the users passwd right? try it.. hp-ux can run it but i m not sure in freebsd
