to elaborate on Olivier's reply,
AFAIK (do correct me if im wrong), the ring password protects only the
optional ring nickname association - the ring account does not require
one - the account can be restored on another machine without associating
it with a nickname if a (highly recommended) backup copy of the ring
credentials exists
if the credentials were lost then the only option is to create a new
account and all of your contacts would need to be added again and they
would need to delete your lost account add your new account - it may be
possible to associate an existing nickname with that new account using a
script similar to this one but it is a "work in progress" and YYMV today
