If you can get shell or web-based command line access, you verify your
password file with this:
cat /etc/master.passwd
if it looks ok (compare with a CVS checkout copy from the web cvs
viewer), then repair the DB files:
pwd_mkdb -p /etc/master.passwd 2>&1
(if you've got command line shell, you don't need to do the
redirection at the end to see stderr)
if all goes well, reboot. if it reports errors, fix them. usually
this will mean deleting some temp file it complains about already
existing.
