What do you mean 'try to login as that user' - try to login as 'test',
or something else?

Do you have passwd, master.passwd, group, pwd.db and spwd.db files in
the /home/test/etc/ directory?  If not, copy the passwd, master.passwd
and group files from your /etc/ directory, remove the entries you do not
really need, then run pwd_mkdb /home/test/etc/master.passwd to build
the pwd.db and spwd.db files.

If that doesn't work, can you post the output of 'find /home/test -ls'

G'luck,
Peter
