"exit" to logout of userI session, Then at the Login: prompt type "userII", of course you have to also input the "password" for userII this can be found at the freebsd.org web site:

same procedure as above, except use "root" and "userI"

If you are using XFree86 version 3.3.6, if using XFree86 version 4.x and above you will need the port/pkg of xwrapper more information is here: 
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/x-config.html

Try " man who"

Now this took about 3 minutes time in looking for it on the freebsd.org web site. The documentation is your friend!
