FreeBSD version 9.0 I have here.

It has /etc/passwd and /etc/group files as Linux does. I figured that Linux /etc/shadow corresponds to FreeBSD /etc/master.passwd. The open question is what FreeBSD uses in place of Linux /etc/gshadow file?

FreeBSD doesn't have an equivalent. The convention is not to use group passwords at all and just put an asterisk in the password field. No group passwords means no need to have something like /etc/gshadow.
