My guess is that somehow this entry is incorrect,
probably the 'S-1-5-...' is wrong somehow.
You might try:
1. Save /etc/passwd to /etc/passwd.save
2. Delete the entry for 'test'.
3. mkpasswd -d | grep test >> /etc/passwd
4. Check to see whether the entry for 'test'
is reasonable. Also:
$ diff /etc/passwd /etc/passwd.save
