If you have pam on your system, then it broken
'/etc/pam.d/system-local-login' might be the cause, as well as
user-specific files there.
And if that's not the case, try commenting out pam modules like
mod_access, which can add additional access restrictions.

Also, you can probably tell if pam is the cause of a problem by
commenting out all the required modules from whole authentication chain
(usually, commenting out everything in system-auth will do) - it should
allow any access w/o password, and it's probably not pam if it
doesn't... can't really think what else it might be, though.
