Try logging on as a local user.  I believe this is the problem.  I'm just
guessing of course but I would suspect that you appended the output of 
mkpasswd -d to your /etc/passwd file previously.  If things work with the
local user, append the output of mkpasswd -d to your current /etc/passwd
file.  Even if the local user doesn't work, you may want to try this 
anyway.
