I haven't seen that error before.  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.
