That should work.

That doesn't make any difference. If the password is local (not
system), then /etc/shells is NEVER checked.

The Password attribute MUST be on the first line. See the sample
'users' file.
Note also that when you run the server in debugging mode, you get an
error message telling you what the problem is, and how to fix it.
And this is most likely the source of your problem. Put the
password attribute on the same line as the username, and it should
work.
