Hmm.  I can only assume you're trying to login as root, or toor (is the 
latter still in NetBSD?).  If this is the case, you have found one of the 
security features.  What you should do instead is to create yourself a 
normal, unprivileged account ("man adduser") and, if you need superuser 
access, add your account to the "wheel" group in /etc/group and use the 
su command.

I've never seen this.
