If you installed the source, as root, try the following

   cp /usr/src/etc/login.conf /etc/login.conf
   /usr/bin/cap_mkdb /etc/login.conf

I believe that the login class capability database, `/etc/login.conf', 
was inadvertently omitted from the 2.2.2 release. You may want to take
a look at the manual page for login.conf(5).
