Looks like i found the problem , i thought i've made a mistake.
I shouldn't use `pw user add aaron' right ?
That won't create user home directory , when i found i've got no home
directory.
So at that time , i created it and change the owner to my user.
$ sudo tail -f /var/log/auth.log
login: _secure_path: cannot stat /home/frozen/.login_conf: Permission
denied // Strange , pay attention to user permissions below
// I don't know why
`stat' function fails ..
$ ls -ld /home/frozen
drwxr-xr-x 3 frozen frozen 512 Mar 5 22:36 /home/frozen/
$ ls -lah /home/frozen/.login_conf
-rw-r--r-- 1 frozen frozen 171 Dec 3 14:34 /home/frozen/.login_conf
BTW: ssh login with user frozen is fine.
