It seems that I can no longer log into my system. Upon boot-up, the

I am
then greeted with this error message:
BudMan login: pam_acct_mgmt(1): user account has expired
Login Incorrect.
Shortly afterwards I receive these error messages:
BudMan cron[538] _secure_path: /usr/home/ges/.login_conf is not owned

The last error message will repeat with the number getting

higher.
This is a fresh install of FreeBSD. The only thing I added was KDE 3.2
today. Can anyone tell me what has happened and how do I get back
into my
system?
Thanks in advance!

Gerard,
I am having a similar issue logging in on 5.2.1-RC2, and it seems to
have happened around the time I added a user and some groups using the
KUser utility in KDE. All accounts, including root, are "expired".
My error message is:
login: pam_acct_mgmt(): user accound has expired
Login Incorrect.
Then, a bit later, I receive messages like the following:
kernel: psmintr: out of sync (0008 != 0000)
kernel: psmintr: discard a byte(1)
On a side note, the message really does display "accound" instead of
"account"; it's not a typo of mine. Searches on the following phrases
within the questions and newbies mailing lists produced no leads for
me to research:
'pam_acct_mgmt(): user accound has expired'
'pam_acct_mgmt():'
'psmintr'
I booted into single-user mode (I was amazed to find that
Ctrl-Alt-Delete shutdown the server from the login prompt.) and took a
look at /etc/master.passwd. At the end of one user's entry for shell,
which was /bin/sh, there was "swd 91%" appended to the end. I wonder
if something happened to the file and that's why I am seeing this
password expired issue?
Being schooled,
