My guess is that the entry for the user castalia is missing from the /etc/master.passwd file. If you get an error message when you run the whois command, I am probably right. In that case, put the proper entry in /etc/passwd by copying it from your old passwd file, or by using vipw or adduser. Then invoke pwd_mkdb to regenerate /etc/master.passwd. -- Trevor Johnson
