The best information you can probably get would be in your /var/log files. There should be messages in the logs to indicate what the problem is. Once you know this, it should be relatively easy to provide a solution.
The log entries showed:
"login(pam_unix)[797]: authorization failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=tty2 ruser= rhost= user=chrisd"
Unless I'm missing something (and I probably am), this doesn't tell me much other than PAM module pam_unix (which is used rather extensively) was unable to match user chrisd with the password that I entered. I'm still not sure if this is a PAM problem or a shadow problem...
