Log in as root than type:
strace login
now follow the output of the system call on your screen, when you see the
program is waiting for something, (after a read system call), it's time to
enter the username and the same for the password. Strace reviels which files
are opened and when you are returned to you shell check the last output and
go back until you see something like permission denied.
