Betcha that defeats his purpose. Its not to have a FreeBSD machine but
to be nosey to find out what is on the one he found.

With physical access to the system its pretty easy to change the root
password. Is not as if the filesystems are encrypted. Am sure its in the
archives somewhere but I don't intent to make it easy by saying how.

Is much harder to force change the password without leaving a
significant trail.
