V9 and up by default use one way hashed passwords, so you can't see
them.
Just change the password with the SET PASSWORD command.

No -- the kernel can make a job be logged in simply by saying it
is... :-) and in fact there are syscalls that do the same if you have
enough privilege.
FWIW, the password (hashed by default, or not if you say it shouldn't
be as an account parameter) are stored in an account attribute, which
lives in the GFD (group file directory) on the system disk. See the
RSTS Internals Manual for the details.
