Figured out how to do it!!

The password is kept in the %jruninstalldir%\lib\pass.properties.  The string 
should look something like:  password.login.admin=rl0uE0e2WKB0.

The password is stored in a Unix Crypt format.  You can try to decrypt it (good 
luck) OR you can just replace it with a new one.

Go to any site that can encrypt strings with Unix Crypt ( I used 
http://javascript.internet.com/passwords/unix-crypt(3)-encryption.html )

Type in a new string that you would like for your password.  There is no salt ( 
a seed to offset the encryption string) so you can just click CANCEL.  For 
example "password" is then crypted to be "rl0uE0e2WKB0." 

Replace the unknown encrypted password in the pass.properties with your new 
value.  Restart the JRUN admin server and you should be able to log in with 
your known value.

This is for all those idiots like me who forgot their password!

Enjoy!
