I copied passwd, master.passwd, group, nsswitch.conf files, too, but I get the same. Could somebody tell me how can I solve this?

Try:

  # pwd_mkdb /etc/master.passwd

in your jail.  That creates (amongst other things) the hashed .db files the
getpwent() etc. routines use.  Also look at

   # cap_mkdb login.conf

        Cheers,
