That would be the problem.  You probably lack the crypto libs needed to
check the "old" users.  The new users are probably using a different
encryption method in the password file.  Look at /etc/master.passwd and
you should see a difference in the crypted password.

As far as I know, you *can't* pull libcrypto out and replace it from ports
as there is no such port...  I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong
about that, but even if I am, it still sounds like a bad idea.
