Hi,

There are two possible areas that could be looked into. Check these:

1. check to see that the user has a passwd(needed for remote logins).
# cat /etc/shadow

2. check to see that there is no file called /etc/nologin

A combination of these things not being appropriate can cause some problems. 
If there's no /etc/nologin and no passwd for user,  you will be prompted for 
a passwd when you login. If the /etc/nologin exists and there's no passwd 
for the user, you will be totally thrown out.

Try and let me know.

Cheers.
