In FreeBSD, group names are resolved through /etc/group. Usernames however resolve through a user database that is derived from /etc/master.passwd. The actual database files are /etc/pwd.db and /etc/spwd.db. Try to experiment which of these 3 files are actually required by the quota and ls commands to resolve the usernames. Remember however that putting sensitive information like this inside the chroot is a security risk. master.passwd and spwd.db contain the (encrypted, but crackable) passwords of all users.
